How to convert gigameters to chains (US survey)
1 gigameter is equal to 49,709,595.96 chains (US survey), and 1 chain (us survey) is equal to 2.011684023 × 10⁻⁸ gigameters. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
chains (US survey) = gigameters × 49,709,595.96
chains (US survey) = gigameters ÷ 2.011684023 × 10⁻⁸Example: convert 1 Gm to ch (US): 1 × 49,709,595.96 = 49,709,595.96 ch (US).
