Full precision:1.6874e+16 ftm
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 parsecs to fathoms, we multiply by 1.6874e+16 because one parsec equals exactly 1.6874e+16 fathoms.
1 parsec = 1.6874e+16 fathoms
Since each parsec contains 1.6874e+16 fathoms, we multiply our value by this factor:
1 × 1.6874e+16 = 1.6874e+16 fathoms
So 1 parsecs = 1.6874e+16 fathoms.
Quick check: 1.6874e+16 ÷ 1.6874e+16 = 1 parsecs
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 pc = 1.6874e+16 ftm
1 × 1.6874e+16 = 1.6874e+16
1 × 1.6874e+16 = 1.6874e+16
Example 2: 5 pc = 8.4372e+16 ftm
5 × 1.6874e+16 = 8.4372e+16
5 × 1.6874e+16 = 8.4372e+16
Example 3: 10 pc = 1.6874e+17 ftm
10 × 1.6874e+16 = 1.6874e+17
10 × 1.6874e+16 = 1.6874e+17
