Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Meters.
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 meters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Meters) = 30 / 0.049709596
Length(Meters) = 603.5052
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 603.5052 m.
The length is 603.5052 m, in meters.
