Can you convert metric times to yardage times?

Greetings I am reading a book by Jan Olbrecht, the Dutch physiologist. In the last chapter he talks about using a T-30 test in the abscence of blood lactate testing to determine a swimmers aerobic capacity. He then gives a table to assign a range of 100m workout paces based on the results of the T-30. The whole chart has times for meters not yards. Is there a way to convert the times I am interested in into 100 yard times? Thanks Spudfin

    Thanks for all the responses. I think I will use the down and dirty 0.9 multiplier as I am using it as a broad indicator for setting my intrinsice(fast) and extrinsic(Pace) workouts in prepping for longer open water swims. I found it interesting all the commentary on flip turns and sdk as I am just incorporating both into my workouts this winter. All good stuff. Great forum. Thanks again. Spudfin
