Convert parsec to digit

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p a r s e c) = x (d i g i t)

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 r s e c) = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} (m e t e r) = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (d i g i t) = 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} (m e t e r) = 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p a r s e c) = x (d i g i t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \cdot (m) = x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} \times (m)

Conversion Equation

3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} = x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}} = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times \frac{1.0}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 1.9 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}} = 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16} \times \frac{1.0}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}}{1.9 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2} \times 3.08567400801506 \times 10^{16}}{1.9}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{18} \times 3.08567400801506}{1.9}

Solve

x

x \approx 1.6240389516 \times 10^{18} \approx 1.624 \times 10^{18}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p a r s e c) \approx 1.624 \times 10^{18} (d i g i t)
