Convert slug to wey

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s l u g) = x (w e y)

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 (w e y) = 161.47888372 (k i l o g r a m) = 161.47888372 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (s l u g) = x (w e y)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 14.5920665429 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 161.47888372 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 14.5920665429 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 161.47888372 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 14.5920665429 \cdot (k g) = x \times 161.47888372 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

14.5920665429 = x \times 161.47888372

Switch sides

x \times 161.47888372 = 14.5920665429

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{161.47888372})

x \times 161.47888372 \times \frac{1.0}{161.47888372} = 14.5920665429 \times \frac{1.0}{161.47888372}

Cancel

x \times 161.47888372 \times \frac{1.0}{161.47888372} = 14.5920665429 \times \frac{1.0}{161.47888372}

Simplify

x = \frac{14.5920665429}{161.47888372}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0903651685 \approx 9.0365 \times 10^{- 2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s l u g) \approx 9.0365 \times 10^{- 2} (w e y)
