Convert grad to point

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (g r a d) = x (p o i n t)

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

(r a d i a n)

Left side: 1.0 (g r a d) = \frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} (r a d i a n) = \frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} (r a d)

Right side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = \frac{π}{16.0} (r a d i a n) = \frac{π}{16.0} (r a d)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (g r a d) = x (p o i n t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} \times (r a d i a n) = x \times \frac{π}{16.0} \times (r a d i a n)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} \cdot (r a d) = x \cdot \frac{π}{16.0} \cdot (r a d)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} \cdot (r a d) = x \times \frac{π}{16.0} \times (r a d)

Conversion Equation

\frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} = x \times \frac{π}{16.0}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

\frac{π}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} = x \times \frac{π}{16.0}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1.0}{16.0} = \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{2}}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{16.0}{1.0})

x \times \frac{1.0}{16.0} \times \frac{16.0}{1.0} = \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{2}} \times \frac{16.0}{1.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1.0 \times 16.0}{16.0 \times 1.0} = \frac{1.0 \times 16.0}{2.0 \times 10^{2} \times 1.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{16.0}{2.0 \times 10^{2}}

Rewrite equation

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

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 2} \times 16.0}{2.0}

Solve

x

x = 8 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (g r a d) = 8 \times 10^{- 2} (p o i n t)
