Convert dram to quintal

Learn how to convert 1 dram to quintal step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (d r a m) = x (q u i n t a l)

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

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (d r a m) = 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} (k i l o g r a m) = 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (q u i n t a l) = 45.36 (k i l o g r a m) = 45.36 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (d r a m) = x (q u i n t a l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 45.36 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 45.36 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (k g) = x \times 45.36 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

4.37 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 45.36

Switch sides

x \times 45.36 = 4.37 \times 10^{- 3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{45.36})

x \times 45.36 \times \frac{1.0}{45.36} = 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{45.36}

Cancel

x \times 45.36 \times \frac{1.0}{45.36} = 4.37 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{45.36}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.37 \times 10^{- 3}}{45.36}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000963404 \approx 9.634 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (d r a m) \approx 9.634 \times 10^{- 5} (q u i n t a l)
