Examples
1
Consider that a horse is measured to be 16 hands tall.
Convert this height from hands to Rod.
Answer:
Given:
The length in hands is:
Length(Hands) = 16
Formula:
The formula to convert length from hands to rod is:
Length(Rod) = Length(Hands) / 49.500000003771895
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Hands) = 16 in the above formula.
Length(Rod) = 16 / 49.500000003771895
Length(Rod) = 0.3232
Final Answer:
Therefore, 16 hand is equal to 0.3232 rd.
The length is 0.3232 rd, in rod.
2
Consider that a racehorse stands at 15.5 hands.
Convert this measurement from hands to Rod.
Answer:
Given:
The length in hands is:
Length(Hands) = 15.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from hands to rod is:
Length(Rod) = Length(Hands) / 49.500000003771895
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Hands) = 15.5 in the above formula.
Length(Rod) = 15.5 / 49.500000003771895
Length(Rod) = 0.3131
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15.5 hand is equal to 0.3131 rd.
The length is 0.3131 rd, in rod.
