What is the Formula to convert Fathoms (US survey) to ell?

The formula to convert given length from Fathoms (US survey) to ell is:

Length_(ell) = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.6249987500294876

Substitute the given value of length in fathoms (us survey), i.e., Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in ell, i.e., Length_(ell).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

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

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 ell is:

Length_(ell) = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.6249987500294876

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 5 in the above formula.

Length_(ell) = 5 / 0.6249987500294876

Length_(ell) = 8

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 8 ell.

The length is 8 ell, in ell.

2

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

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 ell is:

Length_(ell) = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.6249987500294876

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} = 8 in the above formula.

Length_(ell) = 8 / 0.6249987500294876

Length_(ell) = 12.8

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 12.8 ell.

The length is 12.8 ell, in ell.

Fathoms (US survey)

A fathom (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in maritime contexts in the United States to measure water depth. One US survey fathom is equivalent to exactly 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.

The US survey fathom is defined as 6 feet, consistent with historical maritime measurement practices and used for depth soundings and underwater measurements.

Fathoms (US survey) are utilized in navigation, fishing, and marine activities in the United States to describe water depth. The unit provides a practical measurement for underwater distances and ensures consistency in maritime practices.

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.
