Convert palm to parsec

Learn how to convert 1 palm to parsec step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p a l m) = x (p a r s e c)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (p a l m) = 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} (m e t e r) = 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (p a r s e c) = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} (m e t e r) = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p a l m) = x (p a r s e c)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m) = x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

7.62 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}

Switch sides

x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} = 7.62 \times 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}})

x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times \frac{1.0}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}} = 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}}

Cancel

x \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times \frac{1.0}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}} = 7.62 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}}

Simplify

x = \frac{7.62 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{16}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 16}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{- 16} \times 7.62 \times 10^{- 2}}{3.08567400801506}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 18} \times 7.62}{3.08567400801506}

Solve

x

x \approx 2.4694766784 \times 10^{- 18} \approx 2.4695 \times 10^{- 18}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p a l m) \approx 2.4695 \times 10^{- 18} (p a r s e c)
