Examples
1
Consider that a land survey recorded a boundary line of 25 chains (US survey). Convert this distance from chains (US survey) to Yards.
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 yards is:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains (US survey)) = 30 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 30 / 0.04545445458396727
Length(Yards) = 660.0013
Final Answer:
Therefore, 30 ch is equal to 660.0013 yd.
The length is 660.0013 yd, in yards.
