Convert tonne / cubic meter to ton / cubic meter

Learn how to convert 1 tonne / cubic meter to ton / cubic meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x (\frac{t o n}{c u b i c m e t e r})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 10^{3} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = 10^{3} (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x (\frac{t o n}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r}) = x \times 10^{3} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{c u b i c m e t e r})

Or

1.0 \cdot 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \cdot 10^{3} \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{m^{3}}) = x \times 10^{3} \times (\frac{k g}{m^{3}})

Conversion Equation

1016.0469088 = x \times 10^{3}

Switch sides

x \times 10^{3} = 1016.0469088

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{10^{3}})

x \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}} = 1016.0469088 \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}}

Cancel

x \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}} = 1016.0469088 \times \frac{1.0}{10^{3}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1016.0469088}{10^{3}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{3}} can be rewritten to 10^{- 3}

Rewrite

x = 10^{- 3} \times 1016.0469088

Solve

x

x = 1.0160469088 \approx 1.016

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{c u b i c m e t e r}) \approx 1.016 (\frac{t o n}{c u b i c m e t e r})
