Convert circular mil to square chain

Learn how to convert 1 circular mil to square chain step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c i r c u l a r m i l) = x (s q u a r e c h a i n)

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

(s q u a r e m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c i r c u l a r m i l) = 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) = 404.68564224 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 404.68564224 (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c i r c u l a r m i l) = x (s q u a r e c h a i n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 404.68564224 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 404.68564224 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 404.68564224 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} = x \times 404.68564224

Switch sides

x \times 404.68564224 = 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{404.68564224})

x \times 404.68564224 \times \frac{1.0}{404.68564224} = 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} \times \frac{1.0}{404.68564224}

Cancel

x \times 404.68564224 \times \frac{1.0}{404.68564224} = 5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10} \times \frac{1.0}{404.68564224}

Simplify

x = \frac{5.06707479097498 \times 10^{- 10}}{404.68564224}

Solve

x

x \approx 1.2521014491 \times 10^{- 12} \approx 1.2521 \times 10^{- 12}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c i r c u l a r m i l) \approx 1.2521 \times 10^{- 12} (s q u a r e c h a i n)
