I checked a few sources, which concur with 1 rod = 16.5 feet = 5.5 yards.(3 rods)x(5.5 yards/rod) = 16.5 yards.
There are 5.5 yards in one rod. Therefore, 40 rods is equal to 5.5 x 40 = 220 yards.
One rod is equal to 5.5 yards. Therefore, 6 rods is equal to 5.5 x 6 = 33 yards.
Five and a half yards is equal to one Rod.
One rod is equal to 5.5 yards. Therefore, 1 mile is equal to 1760 / 5.5 = 320 rods.
