Convert grain / cubic foot to tonne / cubic foot

Learn how to convert 1 grain / cubic foot to tonne / cubic foot step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a i n}{c u b i c f o o t}) = x (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c f o o t})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a i n}{c u b i c f o o t}) = \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c f o o t}) = \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{g r a i n}{c u b i c f o o t}) = x (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c f o o t})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

\frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}}{2.8316846592} = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

6.479891 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{10^{- 2}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{10^{- 2}} = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{10^{- 2}}{1016.0469088})

x \times \frac{1016.0469088}{10^{- 2}} \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{1016.0469088} = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{1016.0469088}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1016.0469088 \times 10^{- 2}}{10^{- 2} \times 1016.0469088} = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{1016.0469088}

Simplify

x = \frac{6.479891 \times 10^{- 3} \times 10^{- 2}}{1016.0469088}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000638 \approx 6.3776 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a i n}{c u b i c f o o t}) \approx 6.3776 \times 10^{- 8} (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c f o o t})
