Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Parsecs.
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 parsecs is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Parsecs) = 30 / 1533877859832249.8
Length(Parsecs) = 1.96e-14
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 1.96e-14 pc.
The length is 1.96e-14 pc, in parsecs.

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.
Parsecs
A parsec (symbol: pc) is a unit of length used in astronomy. One parsec is approximately 3.26 light-years or 3.086 × 10¹³ kilometers.
The term parsec comes from "parallax of one arcsecond." It is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
Parsecs are commonly used to measure large distances between astronomical objects outside our solar system, such as between stars or galaxies.
