Convert truss to shekel

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

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (t r u s s) = x (s h e k e l)

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 h e k e l) = 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} (k i l o g r a m) = 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} (k g)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (t r u s s) = x (s h e k e l)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 16.32932532 \times (k i l o g r a m) = x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k i l o g r a m)

Or

1.0 \cdot 16.32932532 \cdot (k g) = x \cdot 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} \cdot (k g)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 16.32932532 \cdot (k g) = x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} \times (k g)

Conversion Equation

16.32932532 = x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}

Switch sides

x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} = 16.32932532

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}})

x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}} = 16.32932532 \times \frac{1.0}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}}

Cancel

x \times 1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}} = 16.32932532 \times \frac{1.0}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}}

Simplify

x = \frac{16.32932532}{1.632932532 \times 10^{- 2}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 2}} can be rewritten to 10^{2}

Rewrite

x = \frac{10^{2} \times 16.32932532}{1.632932532}

Solve

x

x = 1000 = 10 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (t r u s s) = 10 \times 10^{2} (s h e k e l)
