Kilogram Per Cubic Meter (abbreviations: kg/m3, or kgpm3): is an SI derived unit of density, defined by mass in kilograms divided by volume in cubic metres.
Pound Per Cubic Foot (abbreviations: lb/ft3, or ppf3): is a unit of density, defined by mass in pound divided by volume in cubic foot
How to Convert Kilograms Per Cubic Meters to Pounds Per Cubic Feet
Example: How many pounds per cubic feet are equivalent to 28.24 kilograms per cubic meters?
As;
1 kilograms per cubic meters = 0.062989142857143 pounds per cubic feet
28.24 kilograms per cubic meters = Y pounds per cubic feet
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 28.24 times 0.062989142857143 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 28.24 * 0.062989142857143 / 1 = 1.7788133942857 pounds per cubic feet
Answer is: 1.7788133942857 pounds per cubic feet are equivalent to 28.24 kilograms per cubic meters.
