Convert ridge to football field

Learn how to convert 1 ridge to football field step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (r i d g e) = x (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (r i d g e) = 6.1722 (m e t e r) = 6.1722 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) = 91.44 (m e t e r) = 91.44 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (r i d g e) = x (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 6.1722 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 91.44 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 6.1722 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 91.44 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 6.1722 \cdot (m) = x \times 91.44 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

6.1722 = x \times 91.44

Switch sides

x \times 91.44 = 6.1722

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{91.44})

x \times 91.44 \times \frac{1.0}{91.44} = 6.1722 \times \frac{1.0}{91.44}

Cancel

x \times 91.44 \times \frac{1.0}{91.44} = 6.1722 \times \frac{1.0}{91.44}

Simplify

x = \frac{6.1722}{91.44}

Solve

x

x = 0.0675 = 6.75 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (r i d g e) = 6.75 \times 10^{- 2} (f o o t b a l l f i e l d)
