How many chains in a meter then 

I need a new rule

Thinking back to my school days, don't you multiply 2'6" x 2.6" x 3' to get the cubic measurement?

Yes you do, but these imperial measurement converted are only 760mm x 760mm x 900mm which when multiplied together equates to .519m3 and as Mick was saying if none of the measurements were over a metre then you would never achieve 1m cubed or over.

How many chains in a meter then

We still use them on the underground to measure curves.
And the answer is 0.05 chains in a meter.



A chain is a unit of length. It measures 66 feet, or 22 yards, or 100 links,[1] or 4 rods (20.1168 m). There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile. An acre is the area of 10 square chains (that is, an area of one chain by one furlong). The chain has been used for several centuries in Britain and in some other countries influenced by British practice
