Convert sack to pound

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s a c k) = x (p o u n d)

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 (s a c k) = 39.689332375 (k i l o g r a m) = 39.689332375 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (p o u n d) = 0.3732417216 (k i l o g r a m) = 0.3732417216 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (s a c k) = x (p o u n d)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 39.689332375 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 0.3732417216 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 39.689332375 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 0.3732417216 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 39.689332375 \cdot (k g) = x \times 0.3732417216 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

39.689332375 = x \times 0.3732417216

Switch sides

x \times 0.3732417216 = 39.689332375

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.3732417216})

x \times 0.3732417216 \times \frac{1.0}{0.3732417216} = 39.689332375 \times \frac{1.0}{0.3732417216}

Cancel

x \times 0.3732417216 \times \frac{1.0}{0.3732417216} = 39.689332375 \times \frac{1.0}{0.3732417216}

Simplify

x = \frac{39.689332375}{0.3732417216}

Solve

x \approx 106.33680556 \approx 1.0634 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s a c k) \approx 1.0634 \times 10^{2} (p o u n d)
