One fathom is equal to how many meters ?

  • A.1.7699
  • B.2.0210
  • C.1.8288
  • D.2.1212

Answer: C

One fathom is 1.8288 m, exactly 6 feet.

\[ 6 \times 0.3048 = 1.8288\ \mathrm{m} \]

The unit is used for the depth of water and comes from the Old English for the span of a man's outstretched arms.
