If you want to convert yards to meters, it is as follows:
1 inch = 25.4 mm
1000 mm / meter
12 inches = 1 foot
3 feet = 1 yard
100 yards = 300 feet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
= 100 yards x 3 ft/ yd x 12 in/ ft x 25.4 mm/ in x 1 meter/ 1000 mm
The following units cancel out; yards, ft, inches, mm's. You are left with meters.
Now multiply the following numbers: (100 x 3 x 12 x 25.4 x 1 ) / 1000 = 91.44 meters.
I believe this is th same answer as the others gave.

From memory one yard is about 0.914 m or so. So 100 yards is 100 times this. ie, 91.4 m
