The Inch (in) is commonly used in the United States and other countries for measuring small to medium objects. For example, a smartphone screen is around 6 inches, a standard ruler is 12 inches, and a doorway height is about 80 inches. It's widely used in carpentry, display sizes, and construction. The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level.
To convert between Inch (in) and Fathom (ftm), use the following formulas:
1 Inch (in) = 0.013888888888888888 Fathom (ftm)
1 Fathom (ftm) = 72 Inch (in)
1 in = 1 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.013888888888888888 ftm
2 in = 2 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.027777777777777776 ftm
5 in = 5 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.06944444444444445 ftm
10 in = 10 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.1388888888888889 ftm
20 in = 20 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.2777777777777778 ftm
50 in = 50 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 0.6944444444444444 ftm
100 in = 100 * 0.013888888888888888 ftm = 1.3888888888888888 ftm
