Convert nail to douzième

Learn how to convert 1 nail to douzième step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (n a i l) = x (d o u z i è m e)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (n a i l) = 0.05715 (m e t e r) = 0.05715 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (d o u z i è m e) = 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} (m e t e r) = 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (n a i l) = x (d o u z i è m e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.05715 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.05715 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.05715 \cdot (m) = x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

0.05715 = x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4}

Switch sides

x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} = 0.05715

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}})

x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}} = 0.05715 \times \frac{1.0}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}}

Cancel

x \times 1.88 \times 10^{- 4} \times \frac{1.0}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}} = 0.05715 \times \frac{1.0}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.05715}{1.88 \times 10^{- 4}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 4}} can be rewritten to 10^{4}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{4} \times 0.05715}{1.88}

Solve

x

x \approx 303.9893617 \approx 3.0399 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (n a i l) \approx 3.0399 \times 10^{2} (d o u z i è m e)
