  1. 3 ft. to a yard.5280 ft. to a mile.so,440x3=1320 ft.and 5280-1320=4.which comes out to 1/3 of a mile.


  2. Richard b needs to review the math he is good at.   This was not it.    Step it off as some suggested, or get a long tape measure and actually measure it if you can.

  3. If you're marking it off on a road....

    Grab two old t-shirts.

    Drive 15 mph and throw one shirt out the window.

    Continue to drive 15 mph.

    After 60 seconds, thrown out the 2nd.

    This will be 1/4 mile or 440 yards (give or take a few feet).

  4. 440 yards is 400 metres or a quarter mile.

    Once around a school athletics track is 440 yards. If you want to walk around the block or in the park, take 440 stretched steps if you are a child, or 400 if you are a grown up, and that should roughly measure 440 yards.

  5. 440 yards = on trip around the typical track or running area around a football field.

    440 yards is also 400 meters

    1 yard is 3 feet so 440 yards x 3ft = 1320 ft

    or 440 yard is = 1/4 of a mile (.2 on your cars odometer)

    The average person steps approx 2.5 to three feet per step. measure your step. Then walk it off while counting. If you walk at a three foot step then you will need to walk 440 steps. If you walk at a two 2.5 step then you need to walk 528 steps.
