Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.5: 2,000 × 0.5 ≈ 1,000 fm, against the exact 1,093.61 fm (8.6% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A meter is smaller than a fathom, so the number of fathoms must come out smaller than the number of meters. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
