Convert square chain to township

Learn how to convert 1 square chain to township step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) = x (t o w n s h i p)

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) = 4.0 \times 10^{2} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 4.0 \times 10^{2} (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (t o w n s h i p) = 93239571.972096 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 93239571.972096 (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 (t o w n s h i p)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.0 \times 10^{2} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 93239571.972096 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.0 \times 10^{2} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 93239571.972096 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.0 \times 10^{2} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 93239571.972096 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

4.0 \times 10^{2} = x \times 93239571.972096

Switch sides

x \times 93239571.972096 = 4.0 \times 10^{2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{93239571.972096})

x \times 93239571.972096 \times \frac{1.0}{93239571.972096} = 4.0 \times 10^{2} \times \frac{1.0}{93239571.972096}

Cancel

x \times 93239571.972096 \times \frac{1.0}{93239571.972096} = 4.0 \times 10^{2} \times \frac{1.0}{93239571.972096}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.0 \times 10^{2}}{93239571.972096}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.00000429 \approx 4.29 \times 10^{- 6}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s q u a r e c h a i n) \approx 4.29 \times 10^{- 6} (t o w n s h i p)
