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

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

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.1666666666819067

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 feet (us survey), i.e., Length_{(Feet (US survey))}.

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 Feet (US survey).

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 feet (us survey) is:

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.1666666666819067

Substitution:

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

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 5 / 0.1666666666819067

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 30

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 30 ft.

The length is 30 ft, in feet (us survey).

2

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

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 feet (us survey) is:

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.1666666666819067

Substitution:

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

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 8 / 0.1666666666819067

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 48

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 48 ft.

The length is 48 ft, in feet (us survey).
