Examples
1
Consider that a traditional Scottish fabric is sold in lengths of 5 ells.
Convert this length from ells to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in ell is:
Length(ell) = 5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from ell to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(ell) / 17.59999999316029
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(ell) = 5 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 5 / 17.59999999316029
Length(Chains) = 0.2841
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 ell is equal to 0.2841 ch.
The length is 0.2841 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that a tailor measures 2 ells of cloth for a garment.
Convert this measurement from ells to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in ell is:
Length(ell) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert length from ell to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(ell) / 17.59999999316029
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(ell) = 2 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 2 / 17.59999999316029
Length(Chains) = 0.1136
Final Answer:
Therefore, 2 ell is equal to 0.1136 ch.
The length is 0.1136 ch, in chains.

ell
An ell is a unit of length used historically in textiles and other measurements. One ell is equivalent to approximately 45 inches or 1.143 meters.
The ell was originally based on the length of a person's arm or the length of a specific type of cloth, and its definition varied between regions and periods. The unit was commonly used in the textile industry for measuring fabric lengths.
Ells are less commonly used today but remain of historical interest in the study of historical measurements and practices, particularly in textiles and historical trade.
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.
