Examples
1
Consider that a farmer's field is 20 chains long. Convert this distance from chains to Megameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to megameters is:
Length(Megameters) = Length(Chains) / 49709.6954
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 20 in the above formula.
Length(Megameters) = 20 / 49709.6954
Length(Megameters) = 0.0004023359998299
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 ch is equal to 0.0004023359998299 Mm.
The length is 0.0004023359998299 Mm, in megameters.

Consider that a surveyor measures a plot of land that is 15 chains in length. Convert this distance from chains to Megameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to megameters is:
Length(Megameters) = Length(Chains) / 49709.6954
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Megameters) = 15 / 49709.6954
Length(Megameters) = 0.0003017519998724
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 ch is equal to 0.0003017519998724 Mm.
The length is 0.0003017519998724 Mm, in megameters.

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.
Megameters
A megameter (Mm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One megameter is equivalent to 1,000,000 meters or approximately 621.371 miles.
The megameter is defined as one million meters, providing a measurement for very large distances, such as those encountered in planetary and astronomical contexts.
Megameters are used in fields such as astronomy and planetary science to describe distances on a scale larger than kilometers but smaller than astronomical units.
