How to Convert Btu (IT)/pound to calorie (IT)/gram
1 Btu (IT)/pound [Btu/lb] = 0.5555555556 calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
1 calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g] = 1.8 Btu (IT)/pound [Btu/lb]
we use cross multiplication method
Btu (IT)/pound [Btu/lb] → calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
1 → 0.5555555556
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.5555555556=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.8333333333
