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) = 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} (k i l o g r a m) = 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (o u n c e) = 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2} (k i l o g r a m) = 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2} (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 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 5.0 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g) = x \times 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

5.0 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

5.0 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 3.11034768 \times 10^{- 2}

Simplify

5.0 = x \times 3.11034768

Switch sides

x \times 3.11034768 = 5.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.11034768})

x \times 3.11034768 \times \frac{1.0}{3.11034768} = 5.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.11034768}

Cancel

x \times 3.11034768 \times \frac{1.0}{3.11034768} = 5.0 \times \frac{1.0}{3.11034768}

Simplify

x = \frac{5.0}{3.11034768}

Solve

x

x \approx 1.6075373284 \approx 1.6075

Conversion Equation

1.0 (o u n c e) \approx 1.6075 (o u n c e)
