Convert square chain to football field

Learn how to convert 1 square chain to football field step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) = x (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)

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 (s q u a r e c h a i n) = 929.0304 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 929.0304 (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) = 5351.215104 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 5351.215104 (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) = x (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 929.0304 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 5351.215104 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 929.0304 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 5351.215104 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 929.0304 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 5351.215104 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

929.0304 = x \times 5351.215104

Switch sides

x \times 5351.215104 = 929.0304

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{5351.215104})

x \times 5351.215104 \times \frac{1.0}{5351.215104} = 929.0304 \times \frac{1.0}{5351.215104}

Cancel

x \times 5351.215104 \times \frac{1.0}{5351.215104} = 929.0304 \times \frac{1.0}{5351.215104}

Simplify

x = \frac{929.0304}{5351.215104}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.1736111111 \approx 1.7361 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) \approx 1.7361 \times 10^{- 1} (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)
