Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Gigameters.
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 gigameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Gigameters) = 30 / 49709596
Length(Gigameters) = 6.035052065e-7
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 6.035052065e-7 Gm.
The length is 6.035052065e-7 Gm, in gigameters.

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.
Gigameters
A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One gigameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192 miles.
The gigameter is defined as one billion meters, making it a measurement for extremely large distances, often used in astronomical contexts.
Gigameters are used in fields such as astronomy and space science to describe distances on a scale larger than megameters. They offer a convenient way to express the vast distances between celestial bodies and in large-scale cosmic phenomena.
