Convert displacement ton to water ton

Learn how to convert 1 displacement ton to water ton step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (d i s p l a c e m e n t t o n) = x (w a t e r t o n)

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

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (d i s p l a c e m e n t t o n) = 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (w a t e r t o n) = 1.01832416 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 1.01832416 (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (d i s p l a c e m e n t t o n) = x (w a t e r t o n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 1.01832416 \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 1.01832416 \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 1.01832416 \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} = x \times 1.01832416

Switch sides

x \times 1.01832416 = 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.01832416})

x \times 1.01832416 \times \frac{1.0}{1.01832416} = 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{1.01832416}

Cancel

x \times 1.01832416 \times \frac{1.0}{1.01832416} = 9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{1.01832416}

Simplify

x = \frac{9.9108963072 \times 10^{- 1}}{1.01832416}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.9732555405 \approx 9.7326 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (d i s p l a c e m e n t t o n) \approx 9.7326 \times 10^{- 1} (w a t e r t o n)
