Convert li(厘) to twip

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l i (厘)) = x (t w i p)

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 (t w i p) = 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} (m e t e r) = 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l i (厘)) = x (t w i p)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (m) = x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

\frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} = x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5}

Switch sides

x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5}})

x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} \times \frac{1.0}{1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5}} = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3}} \times \frac{1.0}{1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5}}

Cancel

x \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5} \times \frac{1.0}{1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 5}} = \frac{1.0 \times 1.0}{3.0 \times 10^{3} \times 1.76388888888889 \times {10^{- 5}}^{10^{- 2}}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{3.0 \times 1.76388888888889 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2}}{3.0 \times 1.76388888888889}

Solve

x

x \approx 18.897637795 \approx 18.8976

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l i (厘)) \approx 18.8976 (t w i p)
