Convert strike to board foot

Learn how to convert 1 strike to board foot step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (s t r i k e) = x (b o a r d f o o t)

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

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (s t r i k e) = 7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (b o a r d f o o t) = 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (s t r i k e) = x (b o a r d f o o t)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 3}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

7.273744 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 2.359737216 \times {10^{- 3}}^{10^{- 1}}

Simplify

7.273744 = x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}

Switch sides

x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1} = 7.273744

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}})

x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}} = 7.273744 \times \frac{1.0}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}}

Cancel

x \times 2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}} = 7.273744 \times \frac{1.0}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}}

Simplify

x = \frac{7.273744}{2.359737216 \times 10^{- 1}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 1}} can be rewritten to 10

Rewrite

x = \frac{10.0 \times 7.273744}{2.359737216}

Solve

x

x \approx 30.824381421 \approx 30.8244

Conversion Equation

1.0 (s t r i k e) \approx 30.8244 (b o a r d f o o t)
