Convert hogshead to last

Learn how to convert 1 hogshead to last step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (h o g s h e a d) = x (l a s t)

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

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (h o g s h e a d) = 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (l a s t) = 2.9094976 (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.9094976 (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (h o g s h e a d) = x (l a s t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.9094976 \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.9094976 \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.9094976 \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} = x \times 2.9094976

Switch sides

x \times 2.9094976 = 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.9094976})

x \times 2.9094976 \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976} = 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976}

Cancel

x \times 2.9094976 \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976} = 2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.38480942392 \times 10^{- 1}}{2.9094976}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.081966365 \approx 8.1966 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (h o g s h e a d) \approx 8.1966 \times 10^{- 2} (l a s t)
