This is basically a math question. 1 meter is approx 1.093 yards. So, 40 yds is about 40/1.093 = 36.6 meters. If you run 40m in 5.2 seconds, then you would run 36.6m in 5.2/40*36.6 = 4.7 seconds and thus 40 yards in 4.7 seconds.

This is assuming that the velocity of the runner is constant. Which it is not. It depends on the runners acceleration. If he starts fast and ends slow, then he'll run 40yds faster.
