Answer to Problem 22.1P

  41.3chains = 2725.8feet

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Chains= 41.3chains

The chain (Gunter’s chain) is a unit of length equal to 66 feet. It is subdivided into 100 links .In metric term, it is 20.1168 m long.

Calculation:

Convert chains to feet

  1chain = 66feet41.3chains = 2725.8feet

Conclusion:

  41.3chains = 2725.8feet
