What is the Formula to convert Span (cloth) to Reed?

The formula to convert given length from Span (cloth) to Reed is:

Length_(Reed) = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 12.00000000054864

Substitute the given value of length in span (cloth), i.e., Length_{(Span (cloth))} in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in reed, i.e., Length_(Reed).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

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

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 3

Formula:

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

Length_(Reed) = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 12.00000000054864

Substitution:

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

Length_(Reed) = 3 / 12.00000000054864

Length_(Reed) = 0.25

Final Answer:

Therefore, 3 span is equal to 0.25 reed.

The length is 0.25 reed, in reed.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The length in span (cloth) is:

Length_{(Span (cloth))} = 2

Formula:

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

Length_(Reed) = Length_{(Span (cloth))} / 12.00000000054864

Substitution:

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

Length_(Reed) = 2 / 12.00000000054864

Length_(Reed) = 0.1667

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 span is equal to 0.1667 reed.

The length is 0.1667 reed, in reed.

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.

Reed

A reed is a historical unit of length used in various cultures for land measurement and construction. One reed is approximately equivalent to 2.5 to 3 meters or about 8.2 to 9.8 feet.

The exact length of a reed could vary depending on the region and historical period, as it was based on practical measurements of the length of a reed or a similar natural material used for measuring distances.

Reeds were used in historical land surveying, agriculture, and construction. Although not commonly used today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement practices and the use of natural materials in measurement systems.
