Convert pound / barrel to gram / cubic meter

Learn how to convert 1 pound / barrel to gram / cubic meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{b a r r e l}) = x (\frac{g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{b a r r e l}) = \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{b a r r e l}) = x (\frac{g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} = x \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} = \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{7.64554857984}{10^{- 2}})

x \times \frac{10^{- 2}}{7.64554857984} \times \frac{7.64554857984}{10^{- 2}} = \frac{0.45359237}{0.119240471196} \times \frac{7.64554857984}{10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times \frac{10^{- 2} \times 7.64554857984}{7.64554857984 \times 10^{- 2}} = \frac{0.45359237 \times 7.64554857984}{0.119240471196 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.45359237 \times 7.64554857984}{0.119240471196 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2} \times 0.45359237 \times 7.64554857984}{0.119240471196}

Solve

x

x \approx 2908.3770514 \approx 2.9084 \times 10^{3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{b a r r e l}) \approx 2.9084 \times 10^{3} (\frac{g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})
