Convert pico to yocto

Learn how to convert 1 pico to yocto step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p i c o) = x (y o c t o)

Define the prefix value(s)

T h e v a l u e o f p i c o i s 10^{- 12}

T h e v a l u e o f y o c t o i s 10^{- 24}

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p i c o) = x (y o c t o)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 12} = x \times 10^{- 24}

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 12} = x \cdot 10^{- 24}

Conversion Equation

10^{- 12} = x \times 10^{- 24}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

10^{- 12} = x \times {10^{- 24}}^{10^{- 12}}

Simplify

1.0 = x \times 10^{- 12}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{- 12} = 1.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}})

x \times 10^{- 12} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}} = \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{- 12} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}} = \frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 12}} can be rewritten to 10^{12}

Rewrite

x = 10^{12}

Solve

x

x = 10^{12}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p i c o) = 10^{12} (y o c t o)
