Convert board foot to ounce

Learn how to convert 1 board foot to ounce step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (b o a r d f o o t) = x (o u n c e)

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 o a r d f o o t) = 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (o u n c e) = 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (b o a r d f o o t) = x (o u n c e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 2.95735295625 \times {10^{- 5}}^{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

2.359737216 = x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2} = 2.359737216

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}} = 2.359737216 \times \frac{1.0}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}} = 2.359737216 \times \frac{1.0}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.359737216}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

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

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2} \times 2.359737216}{2.95735295625}

Solve

x \approx 79.792207792 \approx 79.7922

Conversion Equation

1.0 (b o a r d f o o t) \approx 79.7922 (o u n c e)
