Convert firkin to point

Learn how to convert 1 firkin to point step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (f i r k i n) = x (p o i n t)

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 (f i r k i n) = 25.40117272 (k i l o g r a m) = 25.40117272 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k i l o g r a m) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (f i r k i n) = x (p o i n t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 25.40117272 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 25.40117272 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 25.40117272 \cdot (k g) = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

25.40117272 = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6}

Switch sides

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} = 25.40117272

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}})

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}} = 25.40117272 \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Cancel

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}} = 25.40117272 \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Simplify

x = \frac{25.40117272}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 6}} can be rewritten to 10^{6}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{6} \times 25.40117272}{2.0}

Solve

x

x = 12700586.36 \approx 1.2701 \times 10^{7}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (f i r k i n) \approx 1.2701 \times 10^{7} (p o i n t)
