Convert ounce to ounce

Learn how to convert 1 ounce to ounce step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (o u n c e) = x (o u n c e)

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 (o u n c e) = 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} (k i l o g r a m) = 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (o u n c e) = 0.1 (k i l o g r a m) = 0.1 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (o u n c e) = x (o u n c e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 0.1 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 0.1 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g) = x \times 0.1 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 0.1

Switch sides

x \times 0.1 = 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.1})

x \times 0.1 \times \frac{1.0}{0.1} = 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{0.1}

Cancel

x \times 0.1 \times \frac{1.0}{0.1} = 2.80668 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{0.1}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.80668 \times 10^{- 2}}{0.1}

Solve

x

x = 0.280668 \approx 2.8067 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (o u n c e) \approx 2.8067 \times 10^{- 1} (o u n c e)
