Mass/volume conversion example
To find the Base per Custom relationship for a custom unit of kilograms per hour (kg/h) and a base unit of
grams per hour (g/h), input the following:
Custom Unit = kg/h
Base Unit = g/h
Because:
1 kg (Kilogram) = 1000 g (Grams)
Then:
1 kg/h = ⫻ = 1000 g/h
1 kg/h = 1000 g/h
Therefore:
Base per Custom = = = 1000
