Convert micro to deci

Learn how to convert 1 micro to deci step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (m i c r o) = x (d e c i)

Define the prefix value(s)

T h e v a l u e o f m i c r o i s 10^{- 6}

T h e v a l u e o f d e c i i s 10^{- 1}

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (m i c r o) = x (d e c i)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 6} = x \times 10^{- 1}

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 6} = x \cdot 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

10^{- 6} = x \times 10^{- 1}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

{10^{- 6}}^{10^{- 5}} = x \times 10^{- 1}

Simplify

10^{- 5} = x

Switch sides

x = 10^{- 5}

Solve

x

x = 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (m i c r o) = 10^{- 5} (d e c i)
