Examples
1
Consider that a farmer's field is 20 chains long.
Convert this distance from chains to Inches.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to inches is:
Length(Inches) = Length(Chains) / 0.0012626262631650505
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 20 in the above formula.
Length(Inches) = 20 / 0.0012626262631650505
Length(Inches) = 15840
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 ch is equal to 15840 in.
The length is 15840 in, in inches.
2
Consider that a surveyor measures a plot of land that is 15 chains in length.
Convert this distance from chains to Inches.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to inches is:
Length(Inches) = Length(Chains) / 0.0012626262631650505
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Inches) = 15 / 0.0012626262631650505
Length(Inches) = 11880
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 ch is equal to 11880 in.
The length is 11880 in, in inches.

Chains
A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
Inches
An inch (symbol: in) is a unit of length used mainly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters.
The inch has origins in ancient times, originally based on the width of a human thumb. Its current definition, established in 1959, is exactly 2.54 centimeters.
Inches are commonly used to measure smaller lengths and distances, such as screen sizes and fabric lengths. Despite the widespread adoption of the metric system, the inch remains in use in these countries.
