How to Convert Pounds Per Linear Feet to Tonnes Per Linear Meters

Example: How many tonnes per linear meters are equivalent to 65.61 pounds per linear feet?


As;

1 pounds per linear feet = 0.0014881889763779 tonnes per linear meters

65.61 pounds per linear feet = Y tonnes per linear meters

Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;

Y equals 65.61 times 0.0014881889763779 over 1

(i.e.) Y = 65.61 * 0.0014881889763779 / 1 = 0.097640078740157 tonnes per linear meters

Answer is: 0.097640078740157 tonnes per linear meters are equivalent to 65.61 pounds per linear feet.
