About this conversion

Energy conversions link food labels in kJ and kcal, SP Group bills in kWh and air-conditioner capacity in BTU.

Writing the units next to every number while you work is the simplest way to avoid mistakes. If the units do not cancel to leave the one you want, the calculation is set up wrongly.

A conversion table is handy for common values, but a calculator is faster and avoids interpolation errors for anything in between.
