How it works
A unit converter translates a quantity between measurement systems by applying the conversion factor between the units. Most conversions are a simple multiplication; only a few (like temperature) need a formula because their scales start at different points.
Convert by factor
Target value = source value × conversion factor
- conversion factor
- units of target per unit of source
Worked example
- Convert 2 kg to pounds
- 1 kg = 2.205 lb
- 2 × 2.205
2 kg ≈ 4.41 pounds.
Good to know
- Reverse a conversion with the reciprocal factor.
- Keep significant figures sensible — a conversion can't add precision the original didn't have.
- Temperature conversions use formulas (°F = °C × 9/5 + 32), not a single multiplier.
