Convert cun(公寸) to cable length

Learn how to convert 1 cun(公寸) to cable length step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = x (c a b l e l e n g t h)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = 10^{- 1} (m e t e r) = 10^{- 1} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (c a b l e l e n g t h) = 185.2 (m e t e r) = 185.2 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = x (c a b l e l e n g t h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 1} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 185.2 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 1} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 185.2 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m) = x \times 185.2 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 1} = x \times 185.2

Switch sides

x \times 185.2 = 10^{- 1}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{185.2})

x \times 185.2 \times \frac{1.0}{185.2} = 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{185.2}

Cancel

x \times 185.2 \times \frac{1.0}{185.2} = 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{185.2}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 1}}{185.2}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0005399568 \approx 5.3996 \times 10^{- 4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) \approx 5.3996 \times 10^{- 4} (c a b l e l e n g t h)
