How to Convert Kilopound Feet to Pound Inches
Example: How many pound inches are equivalent to 2.48 kilopound feet?
As;
1 kilopound feet = 12000 pound inches
2.48 kilopound feet = Y pound inches
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 2.48 times 12000 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 2.48 * 12000 / 1 = 29760 pound inches
Answer is: 29760 pound inches are equivalent to 2.48 kilopound feet.
