How to Convert Kilopound Inches to Pound Feet
Example: How many pound feet are equivalent to 3.8 kilopound inches?
As;
1 kilopound inches = 83.333333333333 pound feet
3.8 kilopound inches = Y pound feet
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 3.8 times 83.333333333333 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 3.8 * 83.333333333333 / 1 = 316.66666666667 pound feet
Answer is: 316.66666666667 pound feet are equivalent to 3.8 kilopound inches.
