Convert pound / cubic foot to gram / fluid-ounce

Learn how to convert 1 pound / cubic foot to gram / fluid-ounce step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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}{c u b i c f o o t}) = \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{f l u i d - o u n c e}) = \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} \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{5.0}{0.28316846592} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} = x \times \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} = \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{1.0})

x \times \frac{1.0}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}} \times \frac{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{1.0} = \frac{5.0}{0.28316846592} \times \frac{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{1.0}

Cancel

x \times \frac{1.0 \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2} \times 1.0} = \frac{5.0 \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{0.28316846592 \times 1.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{5.0 \times 2.84130625 \times 10^{- 2}}{0.28316846592}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.5016989164 \approx 5.017 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c f o o t}) \approx 5.017 \times 10^{- 1} (\frac{g r a m}{f l u i d - o u n c e})
