Calculation process of conversion value

1 chain = `((79200/3937)) / (0.4572)` = 44.000088000176 cubit
1 cubit = `(0.4572) / ((79200/3937))` = 0.022727227272727 chain
? chain × `((79200/3937) ("m"/"chain")) / (0.4572 ("m"/"cubit"))` = ? cubit

High precision conversion

If conversion between chain to metre and metre to cubit is exactly definied, high precision conversion from chain to cubit is enabled.

Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!
