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:
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.
