To convert wet tons to dry tons, you need to know the moisture content of the material. The formula is: dry tons = wet tons / (1 + (moisture content / 100)). Multiply the wet tons by the reciprocal of 1 plus the moisture content divided by 100 to get the dry tons.
To convert ounces to pounds, you divide the number of ounces by 16 since there are 16 ounces in 1 pound. For example, to convert 32 ounces to pounds, you would divide 32 by 16 to get 2 pounds.
There are 2.5 pounds in 40 dry weight ounces.
You are trying to compare volume to weight. There is no relationship. You would have to specify what item you want to compare. A pound of feathers would be a more quarts then a pound of gravel.
sand weighs 100 pounds per cubic feet 2000 pounds is one ton 2000/100 = 20 cubic feet 1 meter = 3.28 feet 1 cu meter = 3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28 = 35.31 cu ft 20 cubic feet = 20/35.31 = 0.566 cubic meters
To convert gallons of 50% caustic soda into dry tons, you first need to determine the weight of the actual caustic soda in the solution. Since the solution is 50% caustic soda, half of the weight of the solution is caustic soda. Next, you need to convert the weight of caustic soda from gallons to pounds using the density of caustic soda. Finally, you can convert the weight in pounds to dry tons by dividing by 2000 (since there are 2000 pounds in a ton).
To convert wet tons to dry tons, you need to know the moisture content of the material. The formula is: dry tons = wet tons / (1 + (moisture content / 100)). Multiply the wet tons by the reciprocal of 1 plus the moisture content divided by 100 to get the dry tons.
To convert liquid aluminum sulfate to dry tons, you need to know the density of the liquid aluminum sulfate. Once you have the density, multiply the volume of liquid aluminum sulfate in the truck load (in gallons or liters) by the density to get the weight in pounds. Finally, divide the weight in pounds by 2000 to convert to dry tons.
Sure thing, honey. To convert tons to dry metric tons, you just need to multiply the number of tons by 0.907185. So, if you have 1 ton, it would be roughly 0.907 metric tons. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Start with a conversion factor. An "old timer's" view is that a cubic foot of dry sand weighs about 125 pounds. There are 3 feet in a yard. There are 3 x 3 or 9 square feet in a square yard. There are 3 x 3 x 3 or 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. As there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard and there are 125 pounds to a cubic foot of our dry sand, there are 27 x 125 pounds of dry sand per cubic yard, or 3,375 pounds of dry sand per cubic yard. (Yes, there are that many.) There are 2,240 pounds in an Imperial ton. There are 3,375 divided by 2,240 Imperial tons in a cubic yard of dry sand, or right at 1.5 Imperial tons of dry sand per cubic yard. To convert cubic yards of dry sand to Imperial tons, multiply the number of cubic yards of dry sand by 1.5 and your answer will appear. Every time.
1 cubic meter = 35.3 cubic feet sand weighs 100 pounds per cu ft 35.3 x 100 = 3530 pounds 1 ton = 2000 pounds 3530/2000 = 1.76 tons
In a simple form: Convert the tons to pounds then divide by the caustic soda weight per pound, which is 12.7 lb. Example: density is 12.70 lb /gallon, 2 tons is 4,000 lb. 4,000 lb x 1 gallon/12.7 lb = 315 gallons (rounded) Other factors like temperature come into play, but in a nut shell that's how you convert DST (dry short ton) to gallons.
Fluid ounces and pounds are two different types of measurements. Fluid ounces relates to liquid and pounds refers to dry ingredients. Therefore, you cannot convert fluid ounces into pounds.
You can't do the calculation because 4 yards is a linear measurement and you need a cubic measurement to calculate the weight of a substance. If you meant 4 cu.yds. then that would be 4*27 = 108 cu.ft. Sand (dry) = 1.6 pounds per cu.ft. Sand (wet) = 2.0 pounds per cu.ft. Therefore: 1.6 x 108 = 172.8 pounds = 0.0864 tons (dry) or 2.0 x 108 = 216 pounds = 0.108 tons (wet)
We would have to know what you are converting. Cups is a measure of volume. Pounds is a measure of weight and mass. You can not directly convert the two. It could be one to a 100 if it is lead vs. feathers.
To convert ounces to pounds, you divide the number of ounces by 16 since there are 16 ounces in 1 pound. For example, to convert 32 ounces to pounds, you would divide 32 by 16 to get 2 pounds.
338 dry ounces = 21.13 pounds.
