Convert truss to sack

Learn how to convert 1 truss to sack step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (t r u s s) = x (s a c k)

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 (t r u s s) = 16.32932532 (k i l o g r a m) = 16.32932532 (k g)

Right side: 1.0 (s a c k) = 39.689332375 (k i l o g r a m) = 39.689332375 (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (t r u s s) = x (s a c k)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 16.32932532 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 39.689332375 \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 16.32932532 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 39.689332375 \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 16.32932532 \cdot (k g) = x \times 39.689332375 \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

16.32932532 = x \times 39.689332375

Switch sides

x \times 39.689332375 = 16.32932532

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{39.689332375})

x \times 39.689332375 \times \frac{1.0}{39.689332375} = 16.32932532 \times \frac{1.0}{39.689332375}

Cancel

x \times 39.689332375 \times \frac{1.0}{39.689332375} = 16.32932532 \times \frac{1.0}{39.689332375}

Simplify

x = \frac{16.32932532}{39.689332375}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.4114285714 \approx 4.1143 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (t r u s s) \approx 4.1143 \times 10^{- 1} (s a c k)
