Convert last to petrol

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l a s t) = x (p e t r o l)

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

Right side: 1.0 (p e t r o l) = \frac{10.0}{7.2} (c u b i c m e t e r) = \frac{10.0}{7.2} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l a s t) = x (p e t r o l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.9094976 \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times \frac{10.0}{7.2} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.9094976 \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot \frac{10.0}{7.2} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.9094976 \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times \frac{10.0}{7.2} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

2.9094976 = x \times \frac{10.0}{7.2}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{10.0}{7.2} = 2.9094976

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{7.2}{10.0})

x \times \frac{10.0}{7.2} \times \frac{7.2}{10.0} = 2.9094976 \times \frac{7.2}{10.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{10.0 \times 7.2}{7.2 \times 10.0} = 2.9094976 \times \frac{7.2}{10.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.9094976 \times 7.2}{10.0}

Solve

x

x = 2.094838272 \approx 2.0948

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l a s t) \approx 2.0948 (p e t r o l)
