Convert point to arpent length

Learn how to convert 1 point to arpent length step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p o i n t) = x (a r p e n t l e n g t h)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = \frac{0.352425}{999.0} (m e t e r) = \frac{0.352425}{999.0} (m)

Right side: 1.0 (a r p e n t l e n g t h) = 58.5216 (m e t e r) = 58.5216 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p o i n t) = x (a r p e n t l e n g t h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{0.352425}{999.0} \times (m e t e r) = x \times 58.5216 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{0.352425}{999.0} \cdot (m) = x \cdot 58.5216 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{0.352425}{999.0} \cdot (m) = x \times 58.5216 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

\frac{0.352425}{999.0} = x \times 58.5216

Switch sides

x \times 58.5216 = \frac{0.352425}{999.0}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{58.5216})

x \times 58.5216 \times \frac{1.0}{58.5216} = \frac{0.352425}{999.0} \times \frac{1.0}{58.5216}

Cancel

x \times 58.5216 \times \frac{1.0}{58.5216} = \frac{0.352425 \times 1.0}{999.0 \times 58.5216}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.352425}{999.0 \times 58.5216}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000060282 \approx 6.0282 \times 10^{- 6}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p o i n t) \approx 6.0282 \times 10^{- 6} (a r p e n t l e n g t h)
