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:

Length(Meters) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 0.049709596

Substitution:

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

Length(Meters) = 25 / 0.049709596

Length(Meters) = 502.921

Final Answer:

Therefore, 25 ch is equal to 502.921 m.

The length is 502.921 m, in meters.

2

Consider that a railway track section measures 30 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)) = 30

Formula:

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

Length(Meters) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 0.049709596

Substitution:

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.

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.

Meters

A meter (m) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One meter is equivalent to approximately 3.2808 feet.

The meter is defined by the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds.

Meters are used worldwide to measure length and distance in various fields, including science, engineering, and everyday life. Most countries have adopted the meter as the standard unit of measurement for length.
