How to use this Kilometers to Chains Converter 🤔

Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Kilometers to the units of Chains.

1. Enter the input Kilometers value in the text field.
2. The calculator converts the given Kilometers into Chains in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Chains label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Chains value is re-calculated, just like that.
3. You may copy the resulting Chains value using the Copy button.
4. To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
5. You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.

What is the Formula to convert Kilometers to Chains?

The formula to convert given length from Kilometers to Chains is:

Length_(Chains) = Length_(Kilometers) / 0.020116799991496227

Substitute the given value of length in kilometers, i.e., Length_(Kilometers) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in chains, i.e., Length_(Chains).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a high-end electric car has a maximum range of 400 kilometers on a single charge.
Convert this range from kilometers to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in kilometers is:

Length_(Kilometers) = 400

Formula:

The formula to convert length from kilometers to chains is:

Length_(Chains) = Length_(Kilometers) / 0.020116799991496227

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_(Kilometers) = 400 in the above formula.

Length_(Chains) = 400 / 0.020116799991496227

Length_(Chains) = 19883.8782

Final Answer:

Therefore, 400 km is equal to 19883.8782 ch.

The length is 19883.8782 ch, in chains.

2

Consider that a private helicopter has a flight range of 150 kilometers.
Convert this range from kilometers to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in kilometers is:

Length_(Kilometers) = 150

Formula:

The formula to convert length from kilometers to chains is:

Length_(Chains) = Length_(Kilometers) / 0.020116799991496227

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_(Kilometers) = 150 in the above formula.

Length_(Chains) = 150 / 0.020116799991496227

Length_(Chains) = 7456.4543

Final Answer:

Therefore, 150 km is equal to 7456.4543 ch.

The length is 7456.4543 ch, in chains.

Kilometers

A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.

The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.

Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.

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.
