Examples

1

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

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 pica is:

Length_(Pica) = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.0023148101853825926

Substitution:

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

Length_(Pica) = 5 / 0.0023148101853825926

Length_(Pica) = 2160.0043

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 fath is equal to 2160.0043 pica.

The length is 2160.0043 pica, in pica.

2

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

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 pica is:

Length_(Pica) = Length_{(Fathoms (US survey))} / 0.0023148101853825926

Substitution:

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

Length_(Pica) = 8 / 0.0023148101853825926

Length_(Pica) = 3456.0069

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 3456.0069 pica.

The length is 3456.0069 pica, in pica.
