Examples
1
Consider that a traditional Japanese building is 3 kens wide.
Convert this width from kens to Meters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kens is:
Length(Kens) = 3
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kens to meters is:
Length(Meters) = Length(Kens) / 0.4720632942
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Kens) = 3 in the above formula.
Length(Meters) = 3 / 0.4720632942
Length(Meters) = 6.3551
Final Answer:
Therefore, 3 ken is equal to 6.3551 m.
The length is 6.3551 m, in meters.
2
Consider that a Japanese temple's hall is 5 kens long.
Convert this length from kens to Meters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kens is:
Length(Kens) = 5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kens to meters is:
Length(Meters) = Length(Kens) / 0.4720632942
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Kens) = 5 in the above formula.
Length(Meters) = 5 / 0.4720632942
Length(Meters) = 10.5918
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 ken is equal to 10.5918 m.
The length is 10.5918 m, in meters.

Kens
A ken is a historical unit of length used in various cultures, particularly in Asia. The length of a ken can vary depending on the region and context. In Japan, one ken is approximately equivalent to 6 feet or about 1.8288 meters.
The ken was traditionally used in architectural and construction measurements, particularly in the design of buildings and layout of spaces.
Ken measurements were utilized in historical architecture and construction practices in Asian cultures. Although not commonly used today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement standards and practices in building and design.
Meters
A meter (m) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One meter is equivalent to approximately 3.2808 feet.
The meter is defined by the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds.
Meters are used worldwide to measure length and distance in various fields, including science, engineering, and everyday life. Most countries have adopted the meter as the standard unit of measurement for length.
