Convert barrel to cubic meter

Learn how to convert 1 barrel to cubic meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (b a r r e l) = x (c u b i c m e t e r)

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

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (b a r r e l) = 0.119240471196 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 0.119240471196 (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 1.0 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 1.0 (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (b a r r e l) = x (c u b i c m e t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.119240471196 \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 1.0 \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.119240471196 \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 1.0 \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.119240471196 \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 1.0 \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

0.119240471196 = x \times 1.0

Simplify

0.119240471196 = x

Switch sides

x = 0.119240471196

Solve

x

x \approx 0.1192404712 \approx 1.1924 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (b a r r e l) \approx 1.1924 \times 10^{- 1} (c u b i c m e t e r)
