Examples

1

Consider that a piece of cloth is measured to be 3 spans in width.
Convert this width from spans to Kens.

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 3

Formula:

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

Length_(Kens) = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 9.266666667683479

Substitution:

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

Length_(Kens) = 3 / 9.266666667683479

Length_(Kens) = 0.3237

Final Answer:

Therefore, 3 span is equal to 0.3237 ken.

The length is 0.3237 ken, in kens.

2

Consider that a scarf is 2 spans long.
Convert this length from spans to Kens.

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 2

Formula:

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

Length_(Kens) = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 9.266666667683479

Substitution:

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

Length_(Kens) = 2 / 9.266666667683479

Length_(Kens) = 0.2158

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 span is equal to 0.2158 ken.

The length is 0.2158 ken, in kens.

Span (cloth)

A span (cloth) is a unit of length used historically in textiles and cloth measurement. One span (cloth) is approximately equivalent to 24 inches or 0.6096 meters.

The span (cloth) is based on the width of a person's outstretched hand from thumb to little finger, providing a practical measure for fabric lengths and textile work.

Spans (cloth) were used in the textile industry for measuring and cutting fabric. While less common today, the unit remains of historical interest and reflects traditional practices in cloth measurement and tailoring.

Kens

A ken is a historical unit of length used in various cultures, particularly in Asia. The length of a ken can vary depending on the region and context. In Japan, one ken is approximately equivalent to 6 feet or about 1.8288 meters.

The ken was traditionally used in architectural and construction measurements, particularly in the design of buildings and layout of spaces.

Ken measurements were utilized in historical architecture and construction practices in Asian cultures. Although not commonly used today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement standards and practices in building and design.
