PermalinkDifference between Yards and Miles
Yards and miles are both measures of distance, but they vary widely in magnitude. A yard is also a unit of length that is equal to 3 feet (or 36 inches) and is commonly used for shorter distances like taking the size or measurements of a room, distances between two places, etc. The mile is more macro since it has 5,280 feet and even 1.760 yards. Normally miles are used for longer distances like the length of a road or the distance between two cities. Thus Yards are a common unit for small material measurements, and using miles is for geographical or travel-based standards.
PermalinkBackground of yards and miles
Both yards and miles have their respective historical and practical favor of usage. Many English-speaking nations defined a yard as three feet, previously determined by measures such as the distance from an average man's nose to his thumb. Over time, the yard became key in the Imperial system for measuring length. The mile comes from ancient Rome, where "mille passus" meant "a thousand paces." A Roman mile was about 5,000 Roman feet. This later became the English statute mile of 5,280 feet, set by Queen Elizabeth I in 1593. The yard and mile were made official in the British Imperial system. They were later adopted in the United States customary system. Today, they are still used for many measurements.
