Convert slug to bag

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s l u g) = 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 (s l u g) = 14.5920665429 (k i l o g r a m) = 14.5920665429 (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 (s l u g) = x (b a g)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 14.5920665429 \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 14.5920665429 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 42.63768278 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 14.5920665429 \cdot (k g) = x \times 42.63768278 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

14.5920665429 = x \times 42.63768278

Switch sides

x \times 42.63768278 = 14.5920665429

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{42.63768278})

x \times 42.63768278 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278} = 14.5920665429 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278}

Cancel

x \times 42.63768278 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278} = 14.5920665429 \times \frac{1.0}{42.63768278}

Simplify

x = \frac{14.5920665429}{42.63768278}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.3422340426 \approx 3.4223 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s l u g) \approx 3.4223 \times 10^{- 1} (b a g)
