Examples

1

Consider that a river's depth is measured at 5 fathoms (US survey).
Convert this depth from fathoms (US survey) to Centimeters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in fathoms (us survey) is:

Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 5

Formula:

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

Length(Centimeters) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 0.005468055556

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 5 in the above formula.

Length(Centimeters) = 5 / 0.005468055556

Length(Centimeters) = 914.4018

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 914.4018 cm.

The length is 914.4018 cm, in centimeters.

2

Consider that a dock extends into the sea for 8 fathoms (US survey).
Convert this length from fathoms (US survey) to Centimeters.

Answer:

Given:

The length in fathoms (us survey) is:

Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 8

Formula:

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

Length(Centimeters) = Length(Fathoms (US survey)) / 0.005468055556

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 8 in the above formula.

Length(Centimeters) = 8 / 0.005468055556

Length(Centimeters) = 1463.0429

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 1463.0429 cm.

The length is 1463.0429 cm, in centimeters.
