Learn how to convert
1
tonne / hour to
ton / hour
step by step.
Calculation Breakdown
Set up the equation
\(1.0\left(\dfrac{tonne}{hour}\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(\dfrac{ton}{hour}\right)\)
Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit \(\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram}{second}\right)\)
\(\text{Left side: 1.0 } \left(\dfrac{tonne}{hour}\right) = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram}{second}\right)} = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)}\)
\(\text{Right side: 1.0 } \left(\dfrac{ton}{hour}\right) = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram}{second}\right)} = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)}\)
Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\(1.0\left(\dfrac{tonne}{hour}\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(\dfrac{ton}{hour}\right)\)
\(\text{Insert known values } =>\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}} \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram}{second}\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram}{second}\right)}\)
\(\text{Or}\)
\(1.0 \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)}\)
\(\text{Cancel SI units}\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \cancel{\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \cancel{\left(\dfrac{{\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g}{s}\right)}}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(\dfrac{907.18474}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times \dfrac{1.0}{3.6}\)
Cancel factors on both sides
\(\text{Cancel factors}\)
\(\dfrac{907.18474}{{\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{3.6}} \times 10^{3}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times \dfrac{1.0}{{\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{3.6}}}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\(\dfrac{907.18474}{10^{3}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
Switch sides
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = \dfrac{907.18474}{10^{3}}\)
Rewrite equation
\(\dfrac{1.0}{10^{3}}\text{ can be rewritten to }10^{-3}\)
\(\text{Rewrite}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = 10^{-3} \times 907.18474\)
Solve \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = 0.90718474\approx9.0718 \times 10^{-1}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(1.0\left(\dfrac{tonne}{hour}\right)\approx{\color{rgb(20,165,174)} 9.0718 \times 10^{-1}}\left(\dfrac{ton}{hour}\right)\)
