Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (cubic meter per kilogram (m³/kg)) without arbitrary rounding:

V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)

Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)

1. Source SI Bridge (k_source):1 ft³/lb = 0.062428 cubic meter per kilogram (m³/kg)

2. Target SI Bridge (k_target):1 cm³/g = 0.001 cubic meter per kilogram (m³/kg)

Step-by-step substitution for Cubic foot/pound → Cubic centimeter/gram:V(cm³/g) = V(ft³/lb) × ( 0.062428 / 0.001 ) = V(ft³/lb) × 62.427962

Mathematical FormulaValue in Cubic centimeter/gram = Value in Cubic foot/pound × 62.42796203Direct computational formula applied for standard conversion.

Worked Example

To convert 24 Cubic foot/pound (ft³/lb) to Cubic centimeter/gram (cm³/g): multiply 24 by 62.427962 to get 1498.271089 cm³/g. At an industrial engineering scale, 1000 ft³/lb converts to 62427.962034 cm³/g.

Inverse check: 1 cm³/g = 0.0160185 ft³/lb.
