Convert inch to cun(公寸)

Learn how to convert 1 inch to cun(公寸) step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (i n c h) = x (c u n (公 寸))

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (i n c h) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (m e t e r) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (c u n (公 寸)) = 10^{- 1} (m e t e r) = 10^{- 1} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (i n c h) = x (c u n (公 寸))

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 10^{- 1} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 10^{- 1} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \times 10^{- 1} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 10^{- 1}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

2.54 \times {10^{- 2}}^{10^{- 1}} = x \times 10^{- 1}

Simplify

2.54 \times 10^{- 1} = x

Switch sides

x = 2.54 \times 10^{- 1}

Solve

x

x = 0.254 = 2.54 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (i n c h) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 1} (c u n (公 寸))
