Examples
1
Consider that a luxury yacht has a beam width of 60 feet.
Convert this width from feet to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in feet is:
Length(Feet) = 60
Formula:
The formula to convert length from feet to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Feet) / 65.99999997183649
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Feet) = 60 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 60 / 65.99999997183649
Length(Chains) = 0.9091
Final Answer:
Therefore, 60 ft is equal to 0.9091 ch.
The length is 0.9091 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that a skyscraper's floor-to-ceiling height is 15 feet.
Convert this height from feet to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in feet is:
Length(Feet) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert length from feet to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Feet) / 65.99999997183649
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Feet) = 15 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 15 / 65.99999997183649
Length(Chains) = 0.2273
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 ft is equal to 0.2273 ch.
The length is 0.2273 ch, in chains.

Feet
A foot (symbol: ft) is a unit of length used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One foot is equal to 0.3048 meters.
The foot originated from various units used in ancient civilizations. Its current definition is based on the international agreement of 1959, which standardized it to exactly 0.3048 meters.
Feet are commonly used to measure height, length, and short distances. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the foot remains in use in these countries.
Chains
A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
