Convert nanon to inch

Learn how to convert 1 nanon to inch step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (n a n o n) = x (i n c h)

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 n o n) = 10^{- 9} (m e t e r) = 10^{- 9} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (i n c h) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (m e t e r) = 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (n a n o n) = x (i n c h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 9} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \cdot (m) = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 9} = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

{10^{- 9}}^{10^{- 7}} = x \times 2.54 \times 10^{- 2}

Simplify

10^{- 7} = x \times 2.54

Switch sides

x \times 2.54 = 10^{- 7}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.54})

x \times 2.54 \times \frac{1.0}{2.54} = 10^{- 7} \times \frac{1.0}{2.54}

Cancel

x \times 2.54 \times \frac{1.0}{2.54} = 10^{- 7} \times \frac{1.0}{2.54}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 7}}{2.54}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000394 \approx 3.937 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (n a n o n) \approx 3.937 \times 10^{- 8} (i n c h)
