Examples

1

Consider that a small land measurement reads 10 inches (US survey).
Convert this length from inches (US survey) to Hands.

Answer:

Given:

The length in inches (us survey) is:

Length_{(Inches (US survey))} = 10

Formula:

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

Length_(Hands) = Length_{(Inches (US survey))} / 3.999992000016

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Inches (US survey))} = 10 in the above formula.

Length_(Hands) = 10 / 3.999992000016

Length_(Hands) = 2.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 in is equal to 2.5 hand.

The length is 2.5 hand, in hands.

2

Consider that a surveyor's tool marks a distance of 25 inches (US survey).
Convert this measurement from inches (US survey) to Hands.

Answer:

Given:
