Understanding Meters and Yards

Meter (m): The meter is a metric unit commonly used worldwide for measuring length and distance. It’s the base unit for length in the International System of Units (SI) and is useful for measuring both short and medium distances, such as room lengths or heights.

Yard (yd): The yard is an imperial unit of length commonly used in countries like the United States and the UK. It’s often seen in contexts like sports field dimensions, fabrics, and construction. One yard is equal to 3 feet or roughly 0.9144 meters.
