Convert pound-force to ounce-force

Learn how to convert 1 pound-force to ounce-force step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p o u n d - f o r c e) = x (o u n c e - f o r c e)

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

(n e w t o n)

Left side: 1.0 (p o u n d - f o r c e) = 4.4482216152605 (n e w t o n) = 4.4482216152605 (N)

Right side: 1.0 (o u n c e - f o r c e) = 0.27801385095378 (n e w t o n) = 0.27801385095378 (N)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p o u n d - f o r c e) = x (o u n c e - f o r c e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.4482216152605 \times (n e w t o n) = x \times 0.27801385095378 \times (n e w t o n)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.4482216152605 \cdot (N) = x \cdot 0.27801385095378 \cdot (N)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.4482216152605 \cdot (N) = x \times 0.27801385095378 \times (N)

Conversion Equation

4.4482216152605 = x \times 0.27801385095378

Switch sides

x \times 0.27801385095378 = 4.4482216152605

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.27801385095378})

x \times 0.27801385095378 \times \frac{1.0}{0.27801385095378} = 4.4482216152605 \times \frac{1.0}{0.27801385095378}

Cancel

x \times 0.27801385095378 \times \frac{1.0}{0.27801385095378} = 4.4482216152605 \times \frac{1.0}{0.27801385095378}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.4482216152605}{0.27801385095378}

Solve

x

x = 16

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p o u n d - f o r c e) = 16 (o u n c e - f o r c e)
