Converting from Chain (ch) to Hectometer (hm)

What is Chain (ch)

A chain (ch) is a unit of length measurement equal to 66 feet or 22 yards. Chains are commonly used in surveying land to measure distances.

What is Hectometer (hm)

A hectometer (hm) is a metric unit of length equal to 100 meters. Hectometers are often used in European countries for measuring longer distances.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from chains to hectometers, you can use the following formula:

Hectometer (hm)=Chain (ch)×0.201168

Similarly, to convert from hectometers to chains, the formula is:

Chain (ch)=Hectometer (hm)×4.97097

Examples

1. Convert 13 chains to hectometers:

Hectometer (hm)=13×0.201168=2.615184

2. Convert 8 hectometers to chains:

Chain (ch)=8×4.97097=39.76776

3. Convert 10 chains to hectometers:

Hectometer (hm)=10×0.201168=2.01168

4. Convert 13 hectometers to chains:

Chain (ch)=13×4.97097=64.6226

5. Convert 8 chains to hectometers:

Hectometer (hm)=8×0.201168=1.609344

6. Convert 10 hectometers to chains:

Chain (ch)=10×4.97097=49.7097
