Topic: Need a formula

[daron]

I have this

Code: [Select]

(/ (/ (* length width height) 1728) 27) = Cubic Yd
Let's say I have the length, height and Cubic Yd. How do I need to rearrange it to get width?

I don't know LISP too well, but wouldn't it just be

Code: [Select]

(/ (/ (* Cubic Yd 1728 27) length) height) = width

or:

Code: [Select]


(setq width (/ (* Cubic_Yd 1728 27)(* length height)))

Be sure to use reals.

Code: [Select]

(/ (/ (* length width height) 1728.0) 27.0) = Cubic Yd

Be sure to use reals.

Good point!

Code: [Select]


(setq width (/ (* Cubic_Yd 46656.0)(* length height)))
