Dram Count Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Dram count = (1000/27.34)*(Weight in grains/Length in yards)
s = (1000/27.34)*(W_Grains/L_yards)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Dram count - (Measured in Kilogram per Meter) - Dram count in silk count system the wt. unit as one dram and the length unit as 1000 yards.
Weight in grains - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight in grains is unit of weight equal to 0.065 gram, or 1/7,000 pound avoirdupois.
Length in yards - (Measured in Meter) - Length in yards is a measure of distance. In the International System of Quantities, length is a quantity with dimension distance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight in grains: 400 Grain --> 0.0259195639999016 Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Length in yards: 40 Yard --> 36.5759999999233 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

s = (1000/27.34)*(W_Grains/L_yards) --> (1000/27.34)*(0.0259195639999016/36.5759999999233)

Evaluating ... ...

s = 0.0259198791856869

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0259198791856869 Kilogram per Meter -->365.764447695683 Grain per Yard (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

365.764447695683 ≈ 365.7644 Grain per Yard <-- Dram count

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
