Convert arm length to point

Learn how to convert 1 arm length to point step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (a r m l e n g t h) = x (p o i n t)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (a r m l e n g t h) = 0.7 (m e t e r) = 0.7 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} (m e t e r) = 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (a r m l e n g t h) = x (p o i n t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.7 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.7 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.7 \cdot (m) = x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

0.7 = x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4}

Switch sides

x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} = 0.7

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}})

x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}} = 0.7 \times \frac{1.0}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}}

Cancel

x \times 3.75 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}} = 0.7 \times \frac{1.0}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.7}{3.75 \times 10^{- 4}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 4}} can be rewritten to 10^{4}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{4} \times 0.7}{3.75}

Solve

x

x \approx 1866.6666667 \approx 1.8667 \times 10^{3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (a r m l e n g t h) \approx 1.8667 \times 10^{3} (p o i n t)
