Convert nail to furlong

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (n a i l) = x (f u r l o n g)

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 (f u r l o n g) = 201.168 (m e t e r) = 201.168 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (n a i l) = x (f u r l o n g)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.05715 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 201.168 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.05715 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 201.168 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.05715 \cdot (m) = x \times 201.168 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

0.05715 = x \times 201.168

Switch sides

x \times 201.168 = 0.05715

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{201.168})

x \times 201.168 \times \frac{1.0}{201.168} = 0.05715 \times \frac{1.0}{201.168}

Cancel

x \times 201.168 \times \frac{1.0}{201.168} = 0.05715 \times \frac{1.0}{201.168}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.05715}{201.168}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0002840909 \approx 2.8409 \times 10^{- 4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (n a i l) \approx 2.8409 \times 10^{- 4} (f u r l o n g)
