Convert timber foot to coomb

Learn how to convert 1 timber foot to coomb step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (t i m b e r f o o t) = x (c o o m b)

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 (t i m b e r f o o t) = 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (c o o m b) = 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (t i m b e r f o o t) = x (c o o m b)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 2} = x \times 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

2.8316846592 \times {10^{- 2}}^{10^{- 1}} = x \times 1.4547488 \times 10^{- 1}

Simplify

2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 1} = x \times 1.4547488

Switch sides

x \times 1.4547488 = 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 1}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.4547488})

x \times 1.4547488 \times \frac{1.0}{1.4547488} = 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{1.4547488}

Cancel

x \times 1.4547488 \times \frac{1.0}{1.4547488} = 2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 1} \times \frac{1.0}{1.4547488}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.8316846592 \times 10^{- 1}}{1.4547488}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.1946511081 \approx 1.9465 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (t i m b e r f o o t) \approx 1.9465 \times 10^{- 1} (c o o m b)
