Examples

1

Consider that a plot of land is measured to be 3 arpents in length.
Convert this length from arpents to Chains (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in arpent is:

Length(Arpent) = 3

Formula:

The formula to convert length from arpent to chains (us survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = Length(Arpent) / 0.3437506874930144

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Arpent) = 3 in the above formula.

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 3 / 0.3437506874930144

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 8.7273

Final Answer:

Therefore, 3 arpent is equal to 8.7273 ch.

The length is 8.7273 ch, in chains (us survey).

2

Consider that a historical land survey recorded an area of 10 arpents.
Convert this area from arpents to Chains (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in arpent is:

Length(Arpent) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert length from arpent to chains (us survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = Length(Arpent) / 0.3437506874930144

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Arpent) = 10 in the above formula.

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 10 / 0.3437506874930144

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 29.0909

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 arpent is equal to 29.0909 ch.

The length is 29.0909 ch, in chains (us survey).

Arpent

An arpent is a historical unit of length used primarily in French-speaking regions and in land measurement. One arpent is approximately equivalent to 192.75 feet or 58.66 meters.

The arpent was used in various regions, including France and the former French colonies, to measure land and property. Its length could vary slightly depending on the specific region and historical context.

Arpents were used in land surveying and agriculture, particularly in historical and regional contexts. Although less common today, the unit provides historical insight into land measurement practices and regional variations in measurement standards.

Chains (US survey)

A chain (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying in the United States. One US survey chain is equivalent to exactly 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The US survey chain is defined as 66 feet, based on historical surveying practices and used for measuring and plotting land.

Chains (US survey) are used in land surveying for tasks such as property measurement, land division, and mapping in the United States. This unit ensures consistency and accuracy in surveying and land measurement activities.
