Convert douzième to micron

Learn how to convert 1 douzième to micron step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (d o u z i è m e) = x (m i c r o n)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (d o u z i è m e) = 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} (m e t e r) = 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (m i c r o n) = 10^{- 6} (m e t e r) = 10^{- 6} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (d o u z i è m e) = x (m i c r o n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 10^{- 6} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 10^{- 6} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m) = x \times 10^{- 6} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

1.88 \times 10^{- 4} = x \times 10^{- 6}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

1.88 \times 10^{- 4} = x \times {10^{- 6}}^{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

1.88 = x \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{- 2} = 1.88

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

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

x \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} = 1.88 \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} = 1.88 \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.88}{10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

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

Rewrite

x = 10^{2} \times 1.88

Solve

x

x = 188 = 1.88 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (d o u z i è m e) = 1.88 \times 10^{2} (m i c r o n)
