Yard to Fathom Converter

1 Yard = 0 Fathom

Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm) Conversion

The Yard (yd) is often used in sports and fabric measurements. A football field is 100 yards long, a yardstick is 1 yard, and a swimming pool can be around 25 yards in length. It’s a common unit in the United States and the UK for measuring land and fabrics. The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level.

Conversion Formula

To convert between Yard (yd) and Fathom (ftm), use the following formulas:

1 Yard (yd) = 0.5 Fathom (ftm)

1 Fathom (ftm) = 2 Yard (yd)

Example Conversions

1. Convert 1 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

1 yd = 1 * 0.5 ftm = 0.5 ftm

2. Convert 2 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

2 yd = 2 * 0.5 ftm = 1 ftm

3. Convert 5 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

5 yd = 5 * 0.5 ftm = 2.5 ftm

4. Convert 10 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

10 yd = 10 * 0.5 ftm = 5 ftm

5. Convert 20 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

6. Convert 50 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

50 yd = 50 * 0.5 ftm = 25 ftm

7. Convert 100 Yard (yd) to Fathom (ftm)

100 yd = 100 * 0.5 ftm = 50 ftm
