Convert pound to bag

Learn how to convert 1 pound to bag step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p o u n d) = x (b a g)

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 u n d) = 0.5 (k i l o g r a m) = 0.5 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (b a g) = 42.63768278 (k i l o g r a m) = 42.63768278 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p o u n d) = x (b a g)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.5 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 42.63768278 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.5 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 42.63768278 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.5 \cdot (k g) = x \times 42.63768278 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

0.5 = x \times 42.63768278

Switch sides

x \times 42.63768278 = 0.5

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{42.63768278})

x \times 42.63768278 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278} = 0.5 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278}

Cancel

x \times 42.63768278 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278} = 0.5 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.5}{42.63768278}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0117267161 \approx 1.1727 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p o u n d) \approx 1.1727 \times 10^{- 2} (b a g)
