100 feet = 1,200 inches = 33⅓ yards = 30.48 meters. For the metric conversion, 100 feet × 0.3048 meters per foot = 30.48 meters. NIST's unit-conversion factors distinguish the international foot used for this conversion from the U.S. survey foot used in some land-survey contexts.

How does 100 feet compare with a football field?
A professional American football field is 360 feet long including the end zones. A 100-foot segment is about 28% of that total length—shorter than one third. It is also 62.5% of the field's 160-foot width. This is a scale comparison with the marked field, not the extra space around it. See our American football field dimensions guide.
How to picture a 100-foot distance
On a straight path, 100 feet is about 33⅓ yards or 30.48 meters. In a room or hallway, imagine the distance laid end to end; the path may need to continue outside if the space is shorter. A 100-foot distance is not the same as 100 square feet, which measures area. To check a real space, measure along the intended route and account for turns or obstructions.
