Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 yards to rods, we divide by 5.5 because one rod equals exactly 5.5 yards.
1 rod = 5.5 yards
Since there are 5.5 yards in every rod, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 5.5 = 0.1818 rods
So 1 yards = 0.1818 rods.
Quick check: 0.1818 × 5.5 = 1 yards
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 yd = 0.1818 rd
1 ÷ 5.5 = 0.1818
1 ÷ 5.5 = 0.1818
Example 2: 5 yd = 0.9091 rd
5 ÷ 5.5 = 0.9091
5 ÷ 5.5 = 0.9091
Example 3: 10 yd = 1.8182 rd
10 ÷ 5.5 = 1.8182
10 ÷ 5.5 = 1.8182
