gallon to
sack
step by step.
Calculation Breakdown
Set up the equation
\(1.0\left(gallon\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(sack\right)\)
Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit \(\left(cubic \text{ } meter\right)\)
\(\text{Left side: 1.0 } \left(gallon\right) = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.54609 \times 10^{-3}\left(cubic \text{ } meter\right)} = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.54609 \times 10^{-3}\left(m^{3}\right)}\)
\(\text{Right side: 1.0 } \left(sack\right) = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}\left(cubic \text{ } meter\right)} = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}\left(m^{3}\right)}\)
Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\(1.0\left(gallon\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(sack\right)\)
\(\text{Insert known values } =>\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.54609 \times 10^{-3}} \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(cubic \text{ } meter\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(cubic \text{ } meter\right)}\)
\(\text{Or}\)
\(1.0 \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.54609 \times 10^{-3}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(m^{3}\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(m^{3}\right)}\)
\(\text{Cancel SI units}\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.54609 \times 10^{-3}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \cancel{\left(m^{3}\right)}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \cancel{\left(m^{3}\right)}}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(4.54609 \times 10^{-3} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.0571721050064 \times 10^{-1}\)
Cancel factors on both sides
\(\text{Cancel factors}\)
\(4.54609 \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancelto{10^{-2}}{10^{-3}}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.0571721050064 \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{10^{-1}}}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\(4.54609 \times 10^{-2} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.0571721050064\)
Switch sides
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.0571721050064 = 4.54609 \times 10^{-2}\)
Isolate \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
Multiply both sides by \(\left(\dfrac{1.0}{1.0571721050064}\right)\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.0571721050064 \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.0571721050064} = 4.54609 \times 10^{-2} \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.0571721050064}\)
\(\text{Cancel}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{1.0571721050064}} \times \dfrac{1.0}{{\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{1.0571721050064}}} = 4.54609 \times 10^{-2} \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.0571721050064}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = \dfrac{4.54609 \times 10^{-2}}{1.0571721050064}\)
Solve \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\approx0.0430023643\approx4.3002 \times 10^{-2}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(1.0\left(gallon\right)\approx{\color{rgb(20,165,174)} 4.3002 \times 10^{-2}}\left(sack\right)\)
