Examples
1
Consider that the average distance from Earth to the Sun is 1 astronomical unit (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 1
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to chains is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 1 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 1 / 1.344725021590054e-10
Length(Chains) = 7436464585.2842
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1 AU is equal to 7436464585.2842 ch.
The length is 7436464585.2842 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that the distance from Earth to Mars at its closest approach is approximately 0.5 astronomical units (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to chains is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 0.5 / 1.344725021590054e-10
Length(Chains) = 3718232292.6421
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.5 AU is equal to 3718232292.6421 ch.
The length is 3718232292.6421 ch, in chains.

Astronomical Units
An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure distances within our solar system. One astronomical unit is equivalent to approximately 149,597,870.7 kilometers or about 92,955,807.3 miles.
The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Astronomical units are used to express distances between celestial bodies within the solar system, such as the distances between planets and their orbits. They provide a convenient scale for describing and comparing distances in a way that is more manageable than using kilometers or miles.
Chains
A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
