Examples

1

Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey).
Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Hectameters.

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 hectameters is:

Length(Hectameters) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 4.9709596000000005

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 25 in the above formula.

Length(Hectameters) = 25 / 4.9709596000000005

Length(Hectameters) = 5.0292

Final Answer:

Therefore, 25 ch is equal to 5.0292 hm.

The length is 5.0292 hm, in hectameters.

2

Consider that a railway track section measures 30 chains (US survey).
Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Hectameters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in chains (us survey) is:

Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30

Formula:

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

Length(Hectameters) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 4.9709596000000005

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.

Length(Hectameters) = 30 / 4.9709596000000005

Length(Hectameters) = 6.0351

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 6.0351 hm.

The length is 6.0351 hm, in hectameters.

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.

Hectameters

A hectometer (hm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One hectometer is equivalent to 100 meters or approximately 328.084 feet.

The hectometer is defined as one hundred meters, providing a measurement for larger distances that are not as extensive as kilometers.

Hectometers are used in various fields, including land measurement and environmental science, to describe distances and areas on a scale larger than meters but smaller than kilometers.
