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).
