Interactive yards to nanometers conversion tool
The yards to nm converter below can be used to quickly and easily convert yards to nanometers. Simply enter the number of yards you want to convert and the calculator will output the corresponding value in nanometers.
What is the conversion factor between yards and nanometers?
A conversion factor is used to change the units of a measured quantity without changing its value. It represents the ratio (or fraction) that expresses the relationship between two different units. A conversion factor is always equal to 1.
The relationship between yards and nanometers is 9.144e+8, such as:
Following the formula above, we can see that there are 9.144e+8 nanometers for every yard, and for every nanometer, there are 19.144e+8 yards (1.09361e-9 yd).
To convert from yards to nanometers, we turn our formula into a conversion factor that is equal to 1.
Both these fractions are equal to 1. The numerator and the denominator are equivalent, they are just expressed in different units.
Because we are converting from yard to nanometer, we will use the first fraction: 9.144e+8 nm1 yd so that yards are canceled out. We then multiply the value in yards by this fraction to get the result in nanometers (see example).
Note that yd is in the denominator (bottom) of the conversion factor. This is important, you always want to have the unit you are converting from at the bottom and the unit you are converting to in the numerator (top).
You will find below how to use this ratio to convert from yd to nm. Just remember for now that the conversion factor for converting from yards to nanometers is:
Which is bigger, a yard or a nanometer?
When it comes to measurements, there can be some confusion over which is bigger, a yard or an nanometer. To find out which one is larger, we must first convert one unit to the other and then compare them.
- 1 yd = 9.144e+8 nm
- 9.144e+8 nanometers is bigger than 1 nanometer.
- 1 yard is, therefore, bigger than 1 nanometer.
- To be more specific, a nanometer is 9.144e+8 times smaller than a yard.

How to convert yards to nanometers?
Multiplying any value by 1 will get you the same value back. You can do that one time or multiple times.
For example:
- 26 x 1 = 26
- 444 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 444
Multiplying by 1 is the first step in any unit conversion problem. The second step is to replace the number 1 with the conversion factor that is also equal to 1.
For example, if we want to convert 100 yards into nanometers we multiply 100 yd by the conversion factor of 9.144e+8 nm1 yd
By replacing the number 1 with the conversion factor, yards are canceled out and we get the result in nanometers. And since the conversion factor is equal to 1, multiplying it with the original value won't change its magnitude and will only change its unit.
Based on this, we can conclude that 100 yards are equal to 9.144e+10 nanometers.
Remember:
- When converting from yards to nanometers, we use 9.144e+8 nm1 yd as a conversion factor.

How to convert 43 yards to nanometers?
We multiply 43 by the factor of 1
We replace the number 1 with the conversion factor for yards to nanometers
We multiply 43 yards by the conversion factor. Having yards in the denominator allows us to cancel out the undesired units (yd) leaving only nanometers in the final result.
Answer: There are 3.93192e+10 nanometers in 43 yards
How many nanometers are in 380 yards?
Multiply 380 by the conversion factor. Make sure the unwanted unit (yd) is in the denominator.
This allows us to cancel out the yards (yd) and leave the nanometers (nm)
Answer: There are 3.47472e+11 nanometers in 380 yards
