Convert point to kip

Learn how to convert 1 point to kip step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p o i n t) = x (k i p)

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

(k i l o g r a m)

Left side: 1.0 (p o i n t) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k i l o g r a m) = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (k i p) = 453.59237 (k i l o g r a m) = 453.59237 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p o i n t) = x (k i p)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 453.59237 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 453.59237 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \cdot (k g) = x \times 453.59237 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

2.0 \times 10^{- 6} = x \times 453.59237

Switch sides

x \times 453.59237 = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{453.59237})

x \times 453.59237 \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237} = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237}

Cancel

x \times 453.59237 \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237} = 2.0 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{453.59237}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.0 \times 10^{- 6}}{453.59237}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000044 \approx 4.4092 \times 10^{- 9}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p o i n t) \approx 4.4092 \times 10^{- 9} (k i p)
