Convert caliber to rope

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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 (r o p e) = 6.096 (m e t e r) = 6.096 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 6.096 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 6.096 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \times 6.096 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 4} = x \times 6.096

Switch sides

x \times 6.096 = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.096})

x \times 6.096 \times \frac{1.0}{6.096} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.096}

Cancel

x \times 6.096 \times \frac{1.0}{6.096} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.096}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 4}}{6.096}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000416667 \approx 4.1667 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c a l i b e r) \approx 4.1667 \times 10^{- 5} (r o p e)
