Examples
1
Consider that a river's depth is measured at 5 fathoms (US survey). Convert this depth from fathoms (US survey) to Rod.
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 rod is:
Substitute given weight Length(Fathoms (US survey)) = 8 in the above formula.
Length(Rod) = 8 / 2.7499945004440693
Length(Rod) = 2.9091
Final Answer:
Therefore, 8 fath is equal to 2.9091 rd.
The length is 2.9091 rd, in rod.
