The Math / Science
Are you used to seeing your prices in Canadian dollars per kilo, but now you're in the States? You have two things to consider. In the States, they sell their products by the pound and in U.S. Dollars. To make the conversion, you have to know how many kilograms are in a pound, and the current exchange rate. This calculator does that for you. It provides the Canadian dollar per liter equivalent for U.S. dollar per gallon.
The formula to convert U.S. Dollars per Pound to Canadian Dollars per Kilogram is:
`CPK = DPP * (1.0 "Pound")/(0.45359 " Kilograms") * ( "$ 1.437 CAD")/($1.0 " USD")`
where:
- CPK = Canadian Dollars per Kilogram
- DPP = Dollars per Pound
Note: the currency exchange rate between the Canadian and U.S. dollars are updated every five minutes.
