What else can I help you with?
Is this true that conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent values used to express the same units in different quantities?
No. The same quantities in different units.
What is a ratio of 2 measurements having different units?
It can be a conversion factor - though not necessarily. For example, 68 deg Fahrenheit = 20 deg Celsius. But there is no conversion factor for F-to-C: instead there is a linear equation.
What should you do to change a value in SI units to a value US customary units?
Use a conversion factor
Why do you use conversion factor?
You use a conversion factor when you want to convert something to something else - for example, to convert between different units of measurement.
How do you know which unit of a conversion factor must be the denominator?
It is the units for the measurement which you are converting FROM.
Is this true that conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent values used to express the same units in different quantities?
No. The same quantities in different units.
Is A conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent values used to express the same units in different quantities?
I don't understand what the question is asking me to do
What is a ratio of equivalent measurement that is used to convert a quantity expressed in one unit to another unit?
A multiplier.
What is a ratio of 2 measures that have different units called?
One term for such a ratio is a "conversion factor".
What is the ratio of equivalent measurements?
It is the conversion factor between the measurement units.
What is The ratio of two equal quantities each measured in different units?
Conversion factor.
What is the value of a conversion factor ratio?
A ratio that's used to convert units always has the value of ' 1 ' with no units. If it were anything different, then you could not multiply it or divide it by any quantity without changing the value of the quantity, which is a basic no-no.
What is the ratio of two measurements with different units?
Ration does not have units. You have to convert one of them to the same units and then work it out. For example: what is the ratio of 4m to 200cm ? This is the same as: 4m to 2m - so the answer is 2 to 1. (400cm to 200cm gives the same answer.)
What is a special kind of ratio in which two types of quantities with different types of units are compared?
It could be a conversion [factor].
What conversion does the value of the conversion factor depend upon the formula of the substance?
The value of the conversion factor depends on the units used to express the quantity being converted. Different units require different conversion factors to relate them accurately. The conversion factor is determined by the relationship between the original unit and the desired unit in the formula for the specific substance.
What must be true for a ratio of two measurements to be a conversion factor?
For two measurements to be a conversion factor, they must represent the same quantity but in different units. The ratio should equal 1 and can be written as a fraction where the units cancel out, allowing you to convert from one unit to another.
Define conversion factor?
A conversion factor is a numerical factor describing the proportionality between two units. For example 0.45359237 is the conversion factor from pounds to kilograms. That is 0.45359237 kg/lb. If the conversion factor kg/lb is multiplied with 4 lb, you get the same mass value in kg.
