Convert li(市厘) to pennyweight

Learn how to convert 1 li(市厘) to pennyweight step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l i (市 厘)) = x (p e n n y w e i g h t)

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

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (l i (市 厘)) = 5.0 \times 10^{- 5} (k i l o g r a m) = 5.0 \times 10^{- 5} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (p e n n y w e i g h t) = 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3} (k i l o g r a m) = 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l i (市 厘)) = x (p e n n y w e i g h t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 5.0 \times 10^{- 5} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 5.0 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 5.0 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (k g) = x \times 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

5.0 \times 10^{- 5} = x \times 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

5.0 \times {10^{- 5}}^{10^{- 2}} = x \times 1.55517384 \times 10^{- 3}

Simplify

5.0 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 1.55517384

Switch sides

x \times 1.55517384 = 5.0 \times 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.55517384})

x \times 1.55517384 \times \frac{1.0}{1.55517384} = 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.55517384}

Cancel

x \times 1.55517384 \times \frac{1.0}{1.55517384} = 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.55517384}

Simplify

x = \frac{5.0 \times 10^{- 2}}{1.55517384}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0321507466 \approx 3.2151 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l i (市 厘)) \approx 3.2151 \times 10^{- 2} (p e n n y w e i g h t)
