Precision and interpretation

Examples are rounded for display. Keep the unrounded factor for intermediate calculations and round the final answer to match the precision of the original measurement. Extra decimal places do not make a measured quantity more accurate.

Force and mass are different quantities. Check the distinction between pound-force and pound mass, and between metric, short, and long ton-force.

Common questions

How do I reverse this conversion?

Divide the target-unit value by the forward factor, or use the inverse converter. Multiplying by the same factor again is not the inverse operation.

Why can the displayed answer differ slightly?

Display rounding and numerical precision can produce a small difference from an exact fractional calculation. For technical work, retain sufficient precision and confirm the unit convention required by the source.
