Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Nautical miles (International).
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 nautical miles (international) is:
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 92.0621723811979
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 25 in the above formula.
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 25 / 92.0621723811979
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 0.2716
Final Answer:
Therefore, 25 ch is equal to 0.2716 nmi.
The length is 0.2716 nmi, in nautical miles (international).
2
Consider that a railway track section measures 30 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Nautical miles (International).
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 nautical miles (international) is:
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 92.0621723811979
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 30 / 92.0621723811979
Length(Nautical miles (International)) = 0.3259
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 0.3259 nmi.
The length is 0.3259 nmi, in nautical miles (international).
