Meters (m)

Fathoms (ftm)

ftm

1 m = 0.5468 ftm

Full precision:0.54680665 ftm

Feet + Inches:129' 2"

Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 meters to fathoms, we divide by 1.8288 because one fathom equals exactly 1.8288 meters.

1 fathom = 1.8288 meters

Since there are 1.8288 meters in every fathom, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 1.8288 = 0.5468 fathoms

So 1 meters = 0.5468 fathoms.

✓Quick check: 0.5468 × 1.8288 = 1 meters

How to Convert Meters to Fathoms

To convert meters to fathoms, divide the value by 1.8288.

Fathoms = Meters ÷ 1.8288

1 fathom = 1.8288 meters

Tip: To convert fathoms back to meters, multiply by 1.8288.

Example 1: 1 m = 0.5468 ftm
1 ÷ 1.8288 = 0.5468

Example 2: 5 m = 2.734 ftm
5 ÷ 1.8288 = 2.734

Example 3: 10 m = 5.4681 ftm
10 ÷ 1.8288 = 5.4681
