Convert column inch to square inch

Learn how to convert 1 column inch to square inch step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = x (s q u a r e i n c h)

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

(s q u a r e m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e i n c h) = 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4} (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) = x (s q u a r e i n c h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1.331 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

1.331 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 4}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

1.331 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 6.45162590802601 \times {10^{- 4}}^{10^{- 1}}

Simplify

1.331 = x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}

Switch sides

x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1} = 1.331

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}})

x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}} = 1.331 \times \frac{1.0}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}}

Cancel

x \times 6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}} = 1.331 \times \frac{1.0}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.331}{6.45162590802601 \times 10^{- 1}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 1}} can be rewritten to 10

Rewrite

x = \frac{10.0 \times 1.331}{6.45162590802601}

Solve

x

x \approx 2.0630458414 \approx 2.063

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c o l u m n i n c h) \approx 2.063 (s q u a r e i n c h)
