Math Formula for range

Ahoy Captains,

Does anyone know the formula to calculate range when viewing though either periscope or though the TBT?

Thanks for your help,

LB

LMAO

Yea, those little green and black thingies in periscope! Watch a video on youtube by SH3 Manual ranging by Bstanko6. Couldn't understand what he said it was and it was in meters. He said was in the manual. I looked in the SH4 manual that came my disk. And I couldn't make heads or tails on the print, even after using a magnifying glass. I thought someone might use another way to estimate range in yards.
