Convert mic to grain

Learn how to convert 1 mic to grain step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (m i c) = x (g r a i n)

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 (m i c) = 10^{- 9} (k i l o g r a m) = 10^{- 9} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (g r a i n) = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} (k i l o g r a m) = 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (m i c) = x (g r a i n)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 9} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \cdot (k g) = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 9} = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

{10^{- 9}}^{10^{- 4}} = x \times 6.479891 \times 10^{- 5}

Simplify

10^{- 4} = x \times 6.479891

Switch sides

x \times 6.479891 = 10^{- 4}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.479891})

x \times 6.479891 \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891} = 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891}

Cancel

x \times 6.479891 \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891} = 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{6.479891}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 4}}{6.479891}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000154324 \approx 1.5432 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (m i c) \approx 1.5432 \times 10^{- 5} (g r a i n)
