Pounds to Liters Calculator

Formula

The formula to convert Pounds to Liters (L) is:

\[ L = \frac{P}{D} \]

Where:

\( L \) is the Volume (liters).
\( P \) is the Weight (pounds).
\( D \) is the Density (pounds/liter).

What is Pounds to Liters?

Pounds to Liters is a conversion factor used to convert a measurement of weight (pounds) to a measurement of volume (liters). This conversion is often used in cooking, chemistry, and other fields where measurements need to be converted from one unit to another. The exact conversion factor can vary depending on the specific substance being measured, as different substances have different densities.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Weight (P): 10 pounds
Density (D): 2 pounds/liter

Using the formula to convert Pounds to Liters:

\[ L = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ liters} \]

This means that the volume for this example is 5 liters.
