Examples

1

Consider that a surveyor's chain is divided into 100 links, with each link being 1 link in length.
Convert this length from links to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in links is:

Length(Links) = 1

Formula:

The formula to convert length from links to chains is:

Length(Chains) = Length(Links) / 99.99999995775474

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Links) = 1 in the above formula.

Length(Chains) = 1 / 99.99999995775474

Length(Chains) = 0.0100000000042245

Final Answer:

Therefore, 1 li is equal to 0.0100000000042245 ch.

The length is 0.0100000000042245 ch, in chains.

2

Consider that a measurement in a survey reads 50 links.
Convert this length from links to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in links is:

Length(Links) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert length from links to chains is:

Length(Chains) = Length(Links) / 99.99999995775474

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Links) = 50 in the above formula.

Length(Chains) = 50 / 99.99999995775474

Length(Chains) = 0.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 li is equal to 0.5 ch.

The length is 0.5 ch, in chains.

Links

A link is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and measurement. One link is equivalent to 0.66 feet or approximately 0.201168 meters.

The link is defined as one-hundredth of a chain, where one chain is 66 feet long. This unit is used for finer measurements in land surveying and mapping.

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.
