Convert marathon to marathon

Learn how to convert 1 marathon to marathon step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (m a r a t h o n) = x (m a r a t h o n)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (m a r a t h o n) = 3.675 \times 10^{4} (m e t e r) = 3.675 \times 10^{4} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (m a r a t h o n) = 4.2195 \times 10^{4} (m e t e r) = 4.2195 \times 10^{4} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (m a r a t h o n) = x (m a r a t h o n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 3.675 \times 10^{4} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 4.2195 \times 10^{4} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 3.675 \times 10^{4} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 4.2195 \times 10^{4} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 3.675 \times 10^{4} \cdot (m) = x \times 4.2195 \times 10^{4} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

3.675 \times 10^{4} = x \times 4.2195 \times 10^{4}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

3.675 \times 10^{4} = x \times 4.2195 \times 10^{4}

Simplify

3.675 = x \times 4.2195

Switch sides

x \times 4.2195 = 3.675

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{4.2195})

x \times 4.2195 \times \frac{1.0}{4.2195} = 3.675 \times \frac{1.0}{4.2195}

Cancel

x \times 4.2195 \times \frac{1.0}{4.2195} = 3.675 \times \frac{1.0}{4.2195}

Simplify

x = \frac{3.675}{4.2195}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.8709562744 \approx 8.7096 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (m a r a t h o n) \approx 8.7096 \times 10^{- 1} (m a r a t h o n)
