Convert caliber to fall

Learn how to convert 1 caliber to fall step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c a l i b e r) = x (f a l l)

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 (f a l l) = 6.858 (m e t e r) = 6.858 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c a l i b e r) = x (f a l l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 6.858 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 6.858 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \times 6.858 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 4} = x \times 6.858

Switch sides

x \times 6.858 = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.858})

x \times 6.858 \times \frac{1.0}{6.858} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.858}

Cancel

x \times 6.858 \times \frac{1.0}{6.858} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.858}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 4}}{6.858}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.000037037 \approx 3.7037 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c a l i b e r) \approx 3.7037 \times 10^{- 5} (f a l l)
