Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Lightyears.
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 lightyears is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Lightyears) = 30 / 470289089667832.75
Length(Lightyears) = 6.38e-14
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 6.38e-14 ly.
The length is 6.38e-14 ly, in lightyears.

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.
Lightyears
A light-year is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure vast distances. One light-year is equivalent to approximately 9.461 trillion kilometers or about 5.879 trillion miles.
A light-year is defined by the distance that light travels in a vacuum in one year, which is about 9.461 Γ 10^12 kilometers.
Light-years are used to measure distances between stars, galaxies, and other celestial objects. They provide a convenient way to express astronomical distances, making it easier to understand the scale of the universe.
