Convert fermi to link

Learn how to convert 1 fermi to link step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (f e r m i) = x (l i n k)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (f e r m i) = 10^{- 15} (m e t e r) = 10^{- 15} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (l i n k) = 0.201168 (m e t e r) = 0.201168 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (f e r m i) = x (l i n k)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 15} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 0.201168 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 15} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 0.201168 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 15} \cdot (m) = x \times 0.201168 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 15} = x \times 0.201168

Switch sides

x \times 0.201168 = 10^{- 15}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.201168})

x \times 0.201168 \times \frac{1.0}{0.201168} = 10^{- 15} \times \frac{1.0}{0.201168}

Cancel

x \times 0.201168 \times \frac{1.0}{0.201168} = 10^{- 15} \times \frac{1.0}{0.201168}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 15}}{0.201168}

Solve

x

x \approx 4.9709695379 \times 10^{- 15} \approx 4.971 \times 10^{- 15}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (f e r m i) \approx 4.971 \times 10^{- 15} (l i n k)
