Dimensional Analysis inches feet 1 inches =
Dimensional Analysis is just a way of converting measurements... You will need your conversion sheet in order to do so... If I wanted to change 14 centimeters into inches, you just need to follow the following steps... Start off with... What you have over 1... Be sure to ALWAYS write your units... 14 centimeters 1 Then find the equivalence of centimeters to inches on your conversion sheet... Ex. 1 in = 2.54 cen Make sure you put the unit you want to end with on TOP and the unit you originally had on BOTTOM... 14 centimeters 1 inch 1 2.54 centimeters x
The centimeters will cancel leaving you with inches... Then you just need to finish by multiplying straight across... 14 2.54 14 centimeters 1 inch 1 2.54 centimeters x = 14 centimeters is equal to 5.51 inches 1 ounce = 28.34 grams Lets try 7 ounces to grams...

Taking it a step further... Not all dimensional analysis is one step... Today we will be focusing on two step... It is the same thing, but you just have to find the linking step... For Example... 4 feet to centimeters We do not have an equivalence for feet to centimeters so we have to use something (inches) to get there... We first need to go from feet to inches, then inches to centimeters... 4 feet 12 inches 2.54 centimeters 1 1 foot 1 inch x x 4 feet 12 inches 2.54 centimeters 1 1 foot 1 inch x x 4 * 12 * 2.54 1
