Porosity given Void Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Porosity in Soil Mechanics = Void Ratio/(1+Void Ratio)
η = e/(1+e)
This formula uses 2 Variables
Variables Used
Porosity in Soil Mechanics - Porosity in Soil Mechanics is the ratio of volume of voids to volume of soil.
Void Ratio - Void Ratio is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of solids.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Void Ratio: 1.2 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
η = e/(1+e) --> 1.2/(1+1.2)
