Calculation process of conversion value

1 light-year = (exactly) `(9460730472580800) / ((79200/3937))` = 4.7028908927463 × 10⁺¹⁴ chain
1 chain = (exactly) `((79200/3937)) / (9460730472580800)` = 2.126351690494 × 10^-15 light-year
? light-year × `(9460730472580800 ("m"/"light-year")) / ((79200/3937) ("m"/"chain"))` = ? chain
