Examples

1

Consider that a boundary fence is 40 rods long.
Convert this length from rods to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in rod is:

Length(Rod) = 40

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rod to chains is:

Length(Chains) = Length(Rod) / 3.9999999979883203

Substitution:

Length(Chains) = 40 / 3.9999999979883203

Length(Chains) = 10

Final Answer:

Therefore, 40 rd is equal to 10 ch.

The length is 10 ch, in chains.

2

Consider that a farmer marks a field boundary using 25 rods.
Convert this distance from rods to Chains.

Answer:

Given:

The length in rod is:

Length(Rod) = 25

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rod to chains is:

Length(Chains) = Length(Rod) / 3.9999999979883203

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length(Rod) = 25 in the above formula.

Length(Chains) = 25 / 3.9999999979883203

Length(Chains) = 6.25

Final Answer:

Therefore, 25 rd is equal to 6.25 ch.

The length is 6.25 ch, in chains.
