Examples

Consider that a traditional measurement for a table's width is 10 handbreadths.
Convert this width from handbreadths to Feet (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in handbreadth is:

Length_{(Handbreadth)} = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert length from handbreadth to feet (us survey) is:

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = Length_{(Handbreadth)} / 4.000008000040641

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Handbreadth)} = 10 in the above formula.

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 10 / 4.000008000040641

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 2.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 handbreadth is equal to 2.5 ft.

The length is 2.5 ft, in feet (us survey).

Consider that a door is 6 handbreadths wide.
Convert this width from handbreadths to Feet (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in handbreadth is:

Length_{(Handbreadth)} = 6

Formula:

The formula to convert length from handbreadth to feet (us survey) is:

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = Length_{(Handbreadth)} / 4.000008000040641

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Handbreadth)} = 6 in the above formula.

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 6 / 4.000008000040641

Length_{(Feet (US survey))} = 1.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6 handbreadth is equal to 1.5 ft.

The length is 1.5 ft, in feet (us survey).

Handbreadth

A handbreadth is a historical unit of length used to measure small distances, typically based on the width of a hand. One handbreadth is approximately equivalent to 4 inches or about 0.1016 meters.

The handbreadth is defined as the width of a person's hand, measured from the edge of the thumb to the edge of the little finger when the hand is spread out. This unit was used for practical measurements in various contexts, including textiles and construction.

Handbreadths were used in historical measurement systems for assessing lengths and dimensions where precise tools were not available. Although less common today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement practices and everyday use in different cultures.

Feet (US survey)

A foot (US survey) is a unit of length used in land surveying and mapping in the United States. One foot (US survey) is defined as exactly 1200/3937 meters, which is approximately 0.3048006096 meters or about 0.3048 meters.

The US survey foot is slightly different from the international foot, which is defined as exactly 0.3048 meters. The difference is due to historical measurement standards and is used in specific contexts such as land surveying and engineering in the United States.

US survey feet are used primarily in the United States for property measurement, land surveying, and mapping, ensuring consistency in measurements within these fields.
