Examples

1

Consider that a piece of cloth is measured to be 3 spans in width.
Convert this width from spans to Cubits (UK).

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 3

Formula:

The formula to convert length from span (cloth) to cubits (uk) is:

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 2

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 3 in the above formula.

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = 3 / 2

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = 1.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 3 span is equal to 1.5 cubit.

The length is 1.5 cubit, in cubits (uk).

2

Consider that a scarf is 2 spans long.
Convert this length from spans to Cubits (UK).

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert length from span (cloth) to cubits (uk) is:

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 2

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 2 in the above formula.

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = 2 / 2

Length_{(Cubits (UK))} = 1

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 span is equal to 1 cubit.

The length is 1 cubit, in cubits (uk).
