Examples

1

Consider that a horse is measured to be 16 hands tall.
Convert this height from hands to Inches (US survey).

Answer:

Given:

The length in hands is:

Length_(Hands) = 16

Formula:

The formula to convert length from hands to inches (us survey) is:

Length_{(Inches (US survey))} = Length_(Hands) / 0.2500005

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_(Hands) = 16 in the above formula.

Length_{(Inches (US survey))} = 16 / 0.2500005

Length_{(Inches (US survey))} = 63.9999
