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:

Length(Yards) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 0.04545445458396727

Substitution:

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

Length(Yards) = 25 / 0.04545445458396727

Length(Yards) = 550.0011

Final Answer:

Therefore, 25 ch is equal to 550.0011 yd.

The length is 550.0011 yd, in yards.

2

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

Formula:

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

Length(Yards) = Length(Chains (US survey)) / 0.04545445458396727

Substitution:

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.
