Convert chain to li(厘)

Learn how to convert 1 chain to li(厘) step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c h a i n) = x (l i (厘))

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c h a i n) = 20.0 (m e t e r) = 20.0 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (l i (厘)) = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} (m e t e r) = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c h a i n) = x (l i (厘))

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 20.0 \times (m e t e r) = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 20.0 \cdot (m) = x \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 20.0 \cdot (m) = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

20.0 = x \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} = 20.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{3.0 \times 10^{3}}{1.0})

x \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times \frac{3.0 \times 10^{3}}{1.0} = 20.0 \times \frac{3.0 \times 10^{3}}{1.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1.0 \times 3.0 \times 10^{3}}{3.0 \times 10^{3} \times 1.0} = 20.0 \times \frac{3.0 \times 10^{3}}{1.0}

Simplify

x = 20.0 \times 3.0 \times 10^{3}

Solve

x

x = 60000 = 6 \times 10^{4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c h a i n) = 6 \times 10^{4} (l i (厘))
