Converting from Hectometer (hm) to Rod (rd)

What is Hectometer (hm)

Hectometer (hm) is a metric unit of length equal to 100 meters. It is commonly used in European countries for measuring large distances.

What is Rod (rd)

Rod (rd) is an imperial unit of length equal to 5.0292 meters or 16.5 feet. It is mainly used in land surveying and property measurements.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Hectometer (hm) to Rod (rd):

• Multiply the hectometer value by 19.88388 to get the equivalent value in rods.
• Formula: rd = hm * 19.88388

To convert from Rod (rd) to Hectometer (hm):

• Multiply the rod value by 0.050292 to get the equivalent value in hectometers.
• Formula: hm = rd * 0.050292

Examples

1. Converting 4 hectometers to rods: rd = 4 * 19.88388 rd = 79.53551 rods

2. Converting 6 rods to hectometers: hm = 6 * 0.050292 hm = 0.301752 hectometers

3. Converting 14 hectometers to rods: rd = 14 * 19.88388 rd = 278.3743 rods

4. Converting 4 rods to hectometers: hm = 4 * 0.050292 hm = 0.201168 hectometers
