Convert slug to geepound

Learn how to convert 1 slug to geepound step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

\(1.0\left(slug\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(geepound\right)\)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit \(\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram\right)\)

\(\text{Left side: 1.0 } \left(slug\right) = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 14.5920665429\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram\right)} = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 14.5920665429\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)}\)

\(\text{Right side: 1.0 } \left(geepound\right) = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 14.5920665429\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram\right)} = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 14.5920665429\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)}\)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)

\(1.0\left(slug\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(geepound\right)\)

\(\text{Insert known values } =>\)

\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 14.5920665429} \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 14.5920665429}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} kilo}gram\right)}\)

\(\text{Or}\)

\(1.0 \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 14.5920665429} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 14.5920665429} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)}\)

\(\text{Cancel SI units}\)

\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 14.5920665429} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \cancel{\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 14.5920665429} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \cancel{\left({\color{rgb(230,179,255)} k}g\right)}}\)

\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)

\(14.5920665429 = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 14.5920665429\)

Cancel factors on both sides

\(\text{Cancel factors}\)

\({\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{14.5920665429}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{14.5920665429}}\)

\(\text{Simplify}\)

\(1.0 = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)

Switch sides

\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = 1.0\)

Solve \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)

\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = 1\)
