Convert gram / minute to tonne / second

Learn how to convert 1 gram / minute to tonne / second step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{m i n u t e}) = \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} (\frac{k g}{s})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d}) = 907.18474 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = 907.18474 (\frac{k g}{s})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = x \times 907.18474 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} \cdot (\frac{k g}{s}) = x \cdot 907.18474 \cdot (\frac{k g}{s})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} \cdot (\frac{k g}{s}) = x \times 907.18474 \times (\frac{k g}{s})

Conversion Equation

\frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} = x \times 907.18474

Switch sides

x \times 907.18474 = \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{907.18474})

x \times 907.18474 \times \frac{1.0}{907.18474} = \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0} \times \frac{1.0}{907.18474}

Cancel

x \times 907.18474 \times \frac{1.0}{907.18474} = \frac{10^{- 3} \times 1.0}{60.0 \times 907.18474}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 3}}{60.0 \times 907.18474}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000184 \approx 1.8372 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{m i n u t e}) \approx 1.8372 \times 10^{- 8} (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d})
