Convert cun(公寸) to pica

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = x (p i c a)

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 (p i c a) = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} (m e t e r) = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = x (p i c a)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 1} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 1} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m) = x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 1} = x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

10^{- 1} = x \times 4.21751764217518 \times {10^{- 3}}^{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

1.0 = x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2} = 1.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}} = \times \frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}} = \frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2}}{4.21751764217518}

Solve

x

x \approx 23.710629921 \approx 23.7106

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) \approx 23.7106 (p i c a)
