Convert this width from kens to Pica.
Answer:
Given:
The length in kens is:
Length(Kens) = 3
Formula:
The formula to convert length from kens to pica is:
Length(Pica) = Length(Kens) / 0.0019984012787879935
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Kens) = 3 in the above formula.
Length(Pica) = 3 / 0.0019984012787879935
