Convert pound to mite

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (p o u n d) = x (m i t e)

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) = 0.3732417216 (k i l o g r a m) = 0.3732417216 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (m i t e) = 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} (k i l o g r a m) = 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (p o u n d) = x (m i t e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.3732417216 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.3732417216 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.3732417216 \cdot (k g) = x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

0.3732417216 = x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}

Switch sides

x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} = 0.3732417216

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}})

x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}} = 0.3732417216 \times \frac{1.0}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}}

Cancel

x \times 3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6} \times \frac{1.0}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}} = 0.3732417216 \times \frac{1.0}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.3732417216}{3.2399455 \times 10^{- 6}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 6}} can be rewritten to 10^{6}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{6} \times 0.3732417216}{3.2399455}

Solve

x

x = 115200 = 1.152 \times 10^{5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (p o u n d) = 1.152 \times 10^{5} (m i t e)
