Convert Carat to Decigram

Unit definitions

Carat

$\frac{2}{10}$ of a gram is a carat. It is used to measure the mass of gemstones.

Decigram

$\frac{1}{10^{1}}$ of a gram is a decigram.

How to convert Carat to Decigram

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = \text{Mass}_{\text{ct}} \cdot 2$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $25.0\ \text{ct}$ to $\text{dg}$.

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 25.0 \cdot 2$$

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 50$$

$$\therefore \ 25.0\ \text{ct} = 50 \ \text{dg}$$

Example 2

Convert $90.0\ \text{ct}$ to $\text{dg}$.

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 90.0 \cdot 2$$

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 180$$

$$\therefore \ 90.0\ \text{ct} = 180 \ \text{dg}$$

Example 3

Convert $105.0\ \text{ct}$ to $\text{dg}$.

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 105.0 \cdot 2$$

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 210$$

$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{ct} = 210 \ \text{dg}$$

Example 4

Convert $150.0\ \text{ct}$ to $\text{dg}$.

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 150.0 \cdot 2$$

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 300$$

$$\therefore \ 150.0\ \text{ct} = 300 \ \text{dg}$$

Example 5

Convert $175.0\ \text{ct}$ to $\text{dg}$.

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 175.0 \cdot 2$$

$$\text{Mass}_{\text{dg}} = 350$$

$$\therefore \ 175.0\ \text{ct} = 350 \ \text{dg}$$
