Convert caliber to cun(寸)

Learn how to convert 1 caliber to cun(寸) step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c a l i b e r) = x (c u n (寸))

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c a l i b e r) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} (m e t e r) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (c u n (寸)) = \frac{1.0}{30.0} (m e t e r) = \frac{1.0}{30.0} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c a l i b e r) = x (c u n (寸))

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r) = x \times \frac{1.0}{30.0} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \cdot \frac{1.0}{30.0} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \times \frac{1.0}{30.0} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 4} = x \times \frac{1.0}{30.0}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1.0}{30.0} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{30.0}{1.0})

x \times \frac{1.0}{30.0} \times \frac{30.0}{1.0} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{30.0}{1.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1.0 \times 30.0}{30.0 \times 1.0} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{30.0}{1.0}

Simplify

x = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times 30.0

Solve

x

x = 7.62 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c a l i b e r) = 7.62 \times 10^{- 3} (c u n (寸))
