Convert inch to klafter

Learn how to convert 1 inch to klafter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (i n c h) = x (k l a f t e r)

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 (k l a f t e r) = 1.8288 (m e t e r) = 1.8288 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (i n c h) = x (k l a f t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.8288 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.8288 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \times 1.8288 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

2.54 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 1.8288

Switch sides

x \times 1.8288 = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.8288})

x \times 1.8288 \times \frac{1.0}{1.8288} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.8288}

Cancel

x \times 1.8288 \times \frac{1.0}{1.8288} = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.8288}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.54 \times 10^{- 2}}{1.8288}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0138888889 \approx 1.3889 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (i n c h) \approx 1.3889 \times 10^{- 2} (k l a f t e r)
