Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Arpent.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains (us survey) is:
Length(Chains (US survey)) = 25
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains (us survey) to arpent is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Arpent) = 30 / 2.9090850909798447
Length(Arpent) = 10.3125
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 10.3125 arpent.
The length is 10.3125 arpent, in arpent.
