How to Convert between Units?

You can convert between units by using cross-multiplication .

Example - How many meter water column is 2000 Pa ?

From the Pa line in the pressure section in this page 1 Pa = 1.020x10-4 m H2O .  A cross-multiplication for the conversion can be expressed as:

x / (2000 Pa) = (1.020x10-4 m H2O) / (1 Pa)

or

x = (2000 Pa) (1.020x10-4 m H2O) / (1 Pa)

= 0.204 m H2O

Example - How many square feet is is 132 square miles ?

From the first line in the area section in this page 1076.39 sq ft = 3.86102x10 -5 sq mi. A cross-multiplication for the conversion can be expressed as:

x / (132 sq mi) = ( 1076.39 sq ft ) / ( 3.86102x10 -5 sq mi )

or

x = (132 sq mi) ( 1076.39 sq ft ) / ( 3.86102x10 -5 sq mi )

= 3679946750 sq ft
