Examples
1
Consider that a farmer's field is 20 chains long.
Convert this distance from chains to Meters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to meters is:
Length(Meters) = Length(Chains) / 0.0497096954
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 20 in the above formula.
Length(Meters) = 20 / 0.0497096954
Length(Meters) = 402.336
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 ch is equal to 402.336 m.
The length is 402.336 m, in meters.
2
Consider that a surveyor measures a plot of land that is 15 chains in length.
Convert this distance from chains to Meters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in chains is:
Length(Chains) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from chains to meters is:
Length(Meters) = Length(Chains) / 0.0497096954
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Chains) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Meters) = 15 / 0.0497096954
Length(Meters) = 301.752
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 ch is equal to 301.752 m.
The length is 301.752 m, in meters.

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.
Meters
A meter (m) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One meter is equivalent to approximately 3.2808 feet.
The meter is defined by the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds.
Meters are used worldwide to measure length and distance in various fields, including science, engineering, and everyday life. Most countries have adopted the meter as the standard unit of measurement for length.
