Examples
1
Consider that the distance to the Andromeda Galaxy is about 0.78 megaparsecs. Convert this distance from megaparsecs to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in megaparsecs is:
Length(Megaparsecs) = 0.78
Formula:
The formula to convert length from megaparsecs to chains is:
Substitute given weight Length(Megaparsecs) = 100 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 100 × 1.533880926995766e+21
Length(Chains) = 1.533880926995766e+23
Final Answer:
Therefore, 100 Mpc is equal to 1.533880926995766e+23 ch.
The length is 1.533880926995766e+23 ch, in chains.

Megaparsecs
A megaparsec (Mpc) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure extremely large astronomical distances. One megaparsec is equivalent to one million parsecs, or approximately 3.262 million light-years or about 3.086 Γ 10^22 meters.
The megaparsec is defined as one million times the length of a parsec, where one parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit subtends an angle of one arcsecond.
Megaparsecs are used to measure vast distances between galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and other large-scale structures in the universe. They provide a convenient scale for expressing the immense distances encountered in cosmology and extragalactic astronomy.
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.
