Examples
1
Consider that a horse is measured to be 16 hands tall.
Convert this height from hands to Feet.
Answer:
Given:
The length in hands is:
Length(Hands) = 16
Formula:
The formula to convert length from hands to feet is:
Length(Feet) = Length(Hands) / 2.9999999999999996
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Hands) = 16 in the above formula.
Length(Feet) = 16 / 2.9999999999999996
Length(Feet) = 5.3333
Final Answer:
Therefore, 16 hand is equal to 5.3333 ft.
The length is 5.3333 ft, in feet.
2
Consider that a racehorse stands at 15.5 hands.
Convert this measurement from hands to Feet.
Answer:
Given:
The length in hands is:
Length(Hands) = 15.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from hands to feet is:
Length(Feet) = Length(Hands) / 2.9999999999999996
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Hands) = 15.5 in the above formula.
Length(Feet) = 15.5 / 2.9999999999999996
Length(Feet) = 5.1667
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15.5 hand is equal to 5.1667 ft.
The length is 5.1667 ft, in feet.
