Convert hundredweight to point

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (h u n d r e d w e i g h t) = x (p o i n t)

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

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (h u n d r e d w e i g h t) = 50.80234544 (k i l o g r a m) = 50.80234544 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k i l o g r a m) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (h u n d r e d w e i g h t) = x (p o i n t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 50.80234544 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 50.80234544 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 50.80234544 \cdot (k g) = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

50.80234544 = x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6}

Switch sides

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} = 50.80234544

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}})

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}} = 50.80234544 \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Cancel

x \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}} = 50.80234544 \times \frac{1.0}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Simplify

x = \frac{50.80234544}{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 6}} can be rewritten to 10^{6}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{6} \times 50.80234544}{2.0}

Solve

x

x = 25401172.72 \approx 2.5401 \times 10^{7}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (h u n d r e d w e i g h t) \approx 2.5401 \times 10^{7} (p o i n t)
