Definition

Use

  1. Simplified formula:
    Measurement unit = (N/D) x SI unit
  2. Complete formula:
    A * measurement unit = (A * N/D * 10**E + K) * SI unit

A = number of measurement units
N = numerator
D = denominator
E = exponent (only required in the case of very large or very small
numbers)
K = additive constant (only required for temperature conversions)

Procedure

Examples

  1. Dimension length
    Measurement unit mm (millimeter)
    SI unit m (meter)
    1 mm = (1/1000) * meter
  2. Dimension temperature
    Measurement unit °F (Fahrenheit)
    SI unit K (Kelvin)
    32 °F = (32 * 5/9 * 10**0 + 255,37) * K = 273,15 K = 0 °C
