Convert barge to pound

Learn how to convert 1 barge to pound step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (b a r g e) = x (p o u n d)

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 (b a r g e) = 20411.65665 (k i l o g r a m) = 20411.65665 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (p o u n d) = 0.5 (k i l o g r a m) = 0.5 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (b a r g e) = x (p o u n d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 20411.65665 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 0.5 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 20411.65665 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 0.5 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 20411.65665 \cdot (k g) = x \times 0.5 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

20411.65665 = x \times 0.5

Switch sides

x \times 0.5 = 20411.65665

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.5})

x \times 0.5 \times \frac{1.0}{0.5} = 20411.65665 \times \frac{1.0}{0.5}

Cancel

x \times 0.5 \times \frac{1.0}{0.5} = 20411.65665 \times \frac{1.0}{0.5}

Simplify

x = \frac{20411.65665}{0.5}

Solve

x

x = 40823.3133 \approx 4.0823 \times 10^{4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (b a r g e) \approx 4.0823 \times 10^{4} (p o u n d)
