Convert pica to finger

Learn how to convert 1 pica to finger step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p i c a) = x (f i n g e r)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (p i c a) = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} (m e t e r) = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (f i n g e r) = 0.1143 (m e t e r) = 0.1143 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p i c a) = x (f i n g e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 0.1143 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 0.1143 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m) = x \times 0.1143 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 0.1143

Switch sides

x \times 0.1143 = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.1143})

x \times 0.1143 \times \frac{1.0}{0.1143} = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{0.1143}

Cancel

x \times 0.1143 \times \frac{1.0}{0.1143} = 4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3} \times \frac{1.0}{0.1143}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.21751764217518 \times 10^{- 3}}{0.1143}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.036898667 \approx 3.6899 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p i c a) \approx 3.6899 \times 10^{- 2} (f i n g e r)
