Examples
1
Consider that a traditional Scottish fabric is sold in lengths of 5 ells.
Convert this length from ells to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in ell is:
Length(ell) = 5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from ell to yards is:
Length(Yards) = Length(ell) / 0.8000000000548639
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(ell) = 5 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 5 / 0.8000000000548639
Length(Yards) = 6.25
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 ell is equal to 6.25 yd.
The length is 6.25 yd, in yards.
2
Consider that a tailor measures 2 ells of cloth for a garment.
Convert this measurement from ells to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in ell is:
Length(ell) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert length from ell to yards is:
Length(Yards) = Length(ell) / 0.8000000000548639
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(ell) = 2 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 2 / 0.8000000000548639
Length(Yards) = 2.5
Final Answer:
Therefore, 2 ell is equal to 2.5 yd.
The length is 2.5 yd, in yards.

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.
Yards
A yard (symbol: yd) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One yard is equal to 0.9144 meters.
The yard originated from various units used in medieval England. Its current definition is based on the international agreement of 1959, which standardized it to exactly 0.9144 meters.
Yards are often used to measure distances in sports fields, textiles, and land. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the yard remains in use in these countries.
