Convert li(厘) to linear meter

Learn how to convert 1 li(厘) to linear meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l i (厘)) = x (l i n e a r m e 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 (l i (厘)) = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} (m e t e r) = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (l i n e a r m e t e r) = 1.0 (m e t e r) = 1.0 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l i (厘)) = x (l i n e a r m e t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.0 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.0 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (m) = x \times 1.0 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

\frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} = x \times 1.0

Simplify

\frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} = x

Switch sides

x = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{3}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 3}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.0}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0003333333 \approx 3.3333 \times 10^{- 4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l i (厘)) \approx 3.3333 \times 10^{- 4} (l i n e a r m e t e r)
