Convert liter to pail

Learn how to convert 1 liter to pail step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l i t e r) = x (p a i 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 i t e r) = 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (p a i l) = 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l i t e r) = x (p a i l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

10^{- 3} = x \times 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

{10^{- 3}}^{10^{- 2}} = x \times 2.9094976 \times 10^{- 1}

Simplify

10^{- 2} = x \times 2.9094976

Switch sides

x \times 2.9094976 = 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.9094976})

x \times 2.9094976 \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976} = 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976}

Cancel

x \times 2.9094976 \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976} = 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{2.9094976}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 2}}{2.9094976}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0034370195 \approx 3.437 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l i t e r) \approx 3.437 \times 10^{- 3} (p a i l)
