Convert linear yard to rood

Learn how to convert 1 linear yard to rood step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l i n e a r y a r d) = x (r o o d)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (l i n e a r y a r d) = 0.9144 (m e t e r) = 0.9144 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (r o o d) = 3.7783 (m e t e r) = 3.7783 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l i n e a r y a r d) = x (r o o d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.9144 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 3.7783 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.9144 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 3.7783 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.9144 \cdot (m) = x \times 3.7783 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

0.9144 = x \times 3.7783

Switch sides

x \times 3.7783 = 0.9144

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.7783})

x \times 3.7783 \times \frac{1.0}{3.7783} = 0.9144 \times \frac{1.0}{3.7783}

Cancel

x \times 3.7783 \times \frac{1.0}{3.7783} = 0.9144 \times \frac{1.0}{3.7783}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.9144}{3.7783}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.242013604 \approx 2.4201 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l i n e a r y a r d) \approx 2.4201 \times 10^{- 1} (r o o d)
