Convert chain to bu(分)

Learn how to convert 1 chain to bu(分) step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c h a i n) = x (b u (分))

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c h a i n) = 30.48 (m e t e r) = 30.48 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (b u (分)) = \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} (m e t e r) = \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c h a i n) = x (b u (分))

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 30.48 \times (m e t e r) = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 30.48 \cdot (m) = x \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 30.48 \cdot (m) = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

30.48 = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} = 30.48

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{3.3 \times 10^{2}}{1.0})

x \times \frac{1.0}{3.3 \times 10^{2}} \times \frac{3.3 \times 10^{2}}{1.0} = 30.48 \times \frac{3.3 \times 10^{2}}{1.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1.0 \times 3.3 \times 10^{2}}{3.3 \times 10^{2} \times 1.0} = 30.48 \times \frac{3.3 \times 10^{2}}{1.0}

Simplify

x = 30.48 \times 3.3 \times 10^{2}

Solve

x

x = 10058.4 \approx 1.0058 \times 10^{4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c h a i n) \approx 1.0058 \times 10^{4} (b u (分))
