Examples

1

Consider that a ship anchors in water that is 30 fathoms deep.
Convert this depth from fathoms to Miles (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in fathoms is:

Length(Fathoms) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert length from fathoms to miles (us survey) is:

Length(Miles (US survey)) = Length(Fathoms) / 880.0018301498029

Substitution:
