Convert assay ton to kip

Learn how to convert 1 assay ton to kip step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (a s s a y t o n) = x (k i p)

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

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (a s s a y t o n) = \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} (k i l o g r a m) = \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (k i p) = 453.59237 (k i l o g r a m) = 453.59237 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (a s s a y t o n) = x (k i p)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 453.59237 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 453.59237 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} \cdot (k g) = x \times 453.59237 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

\frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} = x \times 453.59237

Switch sides

x \times 453.59237 = \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{453.59237})

x \times 453.59237 \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237} = \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2}} \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237}

Cancel

x \times 453.59237 \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237} = \frac{7.0 \times 1.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2} \times 453.59237}

Simplify

x = \frac{7.0}{2.4 \times 10^{2} \times 453.59237}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{2}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 2} \times 7.0}{2.4 \times 453.59237}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000643015 \approx 6.4301 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (a s s a y t o n) \approx 6.4301 \times 10^{- 5} (k i p)
