Examples
1
Consider that a cross-country road trip covers 2,000 miles (US survey). Convert this distance from miles (US survey) to Fathoms.
Answer:
Given:
The length in miles (us survey) is:
Length(Miles (US survey)) = 2000
Formula:
The formula to convert length from miles (us survey) to fathoms is:
Substitute given weight Length(Miles (US survey)) = 100 in the above formula.
Length(Fathoms) = 100 / 0.0011363612730552728
Length(Fathoms) = 88000.183
Final Answer:
Therefore, 100 mi is equal to 88000.183 fath.
The length is 88000.183 fath, in fathoms.
