Examples
1
Consider that a premium 4K TV has a screen size of 55 inches.
Convert this screen size from inches to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in inches is:
Length(Inches) = 55
Formula:
The formula to convert length from inches to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Inches) / 791.9999996620378
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Inches) = 55 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 55 / 791.9999996620378
Length(Chains) = 0.0694444444740778
Final Answer:
Therefore, 55 in is equal to 0.0694444444740778 ch.
The length is 0.0694444444740778 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that a luxury car's alloy wheels have a diameter of 20 inches.
Convert this diameter from inches to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in inches is:
Length(Inches) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert length from inches to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Inches) / 791.9999996620378
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Inches) = 20 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 20 / 791.9999996620378
Length(Chains) = 0.025252525263301
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 in is equal to 0.025252525263301 ch.
The length is 0.025252525263301 ch, in chains.

Inches
An inch (symbol: in) is a unit of length used mainly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters.
The inch has origins in ancient times, originally based on the width of a human thumb. Its current definition, established in 1959, is exactly 2.54 centimeters.
Inches are commonly used to measure smaller lengths and distances, such as screen sizes and fabric lengths. Despite the widespread adoption of the metric system, the inch 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.
