Examples

1

Consider that a surveyor records a property boundary as 30 rods (US survey) long.
Convert this distance from rods (US survey) to Span (cloth).

Answer:

Given:

The length in rods (us survey) is:

Length_{(Rods (US survey))} = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rods (us survey) to span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = Length_{(Rods (US survey))} / 0.045454454536169094

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Rods (US survey))} = 30 in the above formula.

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 30 / 0.045454454536169094

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 660.0013

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 rd is equal to 660.0013 span.

The length is 660.0013 span, in span (cloth).

2

Consider that a farm's perimeter is measured at 50 rods (US survey).
Convert this distance from rods (US survey) to Span (cloth).

Answer:

Given:

The length in rods (us survey) is:

Length_{(Rods (US survey))} = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert length from rods (us survey) to span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = Length_{(Rods (US survey))} / 0.045454454536169094

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Rods (US survey))} = 50 in the above formula.

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 50 / 0.045454454536169094

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 1100.0022

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 rd is equal to 1100.0022 span.

The length is 1100.0022 span, in span (cloth).
