**maths people** How do you work out bhp/ton??

[jon_s]

how do you do it??? :?

[TT]

You take the HP, you divide for the weight of the car in tons and you get hp / ton

A 1000 kg car with 100 hp -> 100 hp / 1 ton = 100 hp per ton

[PATo355]

Oh .... divide the weight of the car for 1000 , then divide the bhp for that number

if you have 1.5 ton car , divide per 1 , then its 1.5

300hp / 1.5 ton = 200hp per ton

is that ?

Fuck TT , you are so fast , hehe , well i was 2nd !!! , like old times

I had to go with the simpler example ever to make it right BTW :P I suck at everything related to maths :D

[jon_s]

ok, so an example:

bhp=300
weight=1685kg

300/1685=0.1784..........

0.1784x1000=178bhp/ton??

[PATo355]

yeah congratulations
(clapping hands) :mrgreen:

[jon_s]

Thankyou :lol:

It'd be easier to just out the kg straight into metric tons from the get go (i.e. 1685 kg = 1.685 ton) ;)

bhp/ton....very straight forward just like any other example,,,,how do you get m/s?? Divide distance in meters by time in seconds- you kind of answered your own question.

Are you talking about sexual things TT ? I remember you that i am mathematics teacher ... :wink:
