Convert pound / cubic meter to ton / fluid-ounce

Learn how to convert 1 pound / cubic meter to ton / fluid-ounce step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x (\frac{t o n}{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 m e t e r}) = 0.5 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 0.5 (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n}{f l u i d - o u n c e}) = \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} (\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 m e t e r}) = x (\frac{t o n}{f l u i d - o u n c e})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.5 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.5 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.5 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

0.5 = x \times \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} = 0.5

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{10^{3}})

x \times \frac{10^{3}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}} \times \frac{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{10^{3}} = 0.5 \times \frac{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{10^{3}}

Cancel

x \times \frac{10^{3} \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5} \times 10^{3}} = 0.5 \times \frac{2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{10^{3}}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.5 \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}}{10^{3}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{3}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 3}

Rewrite

x = 10^{- 3} \times 0.5 \times 2.95735295625 \times 10^{- 5}

Simplify

x = 10^{- 8} \times 0.5 \times 2.95735295625

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000000148 \approx 1.4787 \times 10^{- 8}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d}{c u b i c m e t e r}) \approx 1.4787 \times 10^{- 8} (\frac{t o n}{f l u i d - o u n c e})
