Conversion of units for double-flange level gauges

In the figure, 980.7*100/1000 is being calculated. How is 100/1000 converted? What does that refer to?

When performing calculations for double-flange level gauges, the formula 980.7*100/1000 is likely used to carry out unit conversions. Usually, this calculation formula is used when converting a value from one unit to another. However, since you haven’t provided much information, I can only make some guesses. The 980.7 here is likely a value representing a liquid level difference, with the unit possibly being millimeters (mm) or some other unit. And the ratio of 100/1000 seems to be related to unit conversion, possibly converting millimeters to meters. 1000 millimeters = 1 meter. So if 980.7 is in millimeters, multiplying it by 100 and then dividing by 1000 actually converts it to meters: 980.7 mm * (100/1000) = 980.7 mm * 0.1 = 98.07 mm. This result is still in millimeters; clearly, the conversion has not been completed here. If you want to convert it to meters, simply divide by 1000: 980.7 mm / 1000 = 0.9807 m. To obtain the correct conversion, more context information is needed, such as what the original unit is, what unit it is to be converted to, and what the mathematical context of this conversion is. A more detailed piece of information would allow for a more precise answer. .

Convert cm to m; 980.7 becomes 9.81, which is the acceleration due to gravity, with the unit being m/s2. Converting m to cm gives a value that is 199 times larger
