To convert meters to yards, apply yd = m × 1.09361. For example, 200 m = 218.723 yd, and 1 m is 1.09361 yd.
One yard is 36 inches, and an inch is exactly 2.54 cm, so a yard is exactly 0.9144 m and a meter is about 1.09361 yd. Swimming is where the two meet most: a US short-course pool is 25 yards, which is 22.86 m — not the 25 m of a metric short-course pool.
