1. Fetolela litekanyo tsa lakane ho lisenthimithara:
   • Bolelele: 4 maoto = 48 litsoe
   • Bophara: 8 maoto = 96 litsoe
2. Fetolela botenya ho sebopeho sa decimal:
   • 3/16 intshi = 0.1875 litsoe
3. Bala sebaka sa lakane ka lisenthimithara tse lisekoere:
   • Sebaka = Bolelele x Bophara = 48 lisenthimithara tse x 96 lisenthimithara = 4,608 lisekoere-inch
4. Bala bophahamo ba lakane ka lisenthimithara tse dikubiki:
   • Bolumo = Sebaka x Botenya = 4,608 lisekoere-inch x 0.1875 lisenthimithara = 864 li-cubic inch
5. Fetolela molumo ho tloha ho cubic cubic feet:
   • Bolumo (maoto a dikubiki) = Bolumo (li-cubic inch) / 1728 = 864 li-cubic inch / 1728 = 0.5 maoto a dikubiki
6. Lekola boima ba aluminium. Boima ba aluminium hangata bo pota-potile 0.098 liponto ka inch ea cubic.
7. Atisa molumo ka maoto a li-cubic ka boima ba 'mele ho bala boima ba liponto:
   • Boima ba 'mele (lbs) = Bolumo (maoto a dikubiki) x Boima ba 'mele = 0.5 maoto a cubic x 0.098 lbs/in³ ≈ 0.049 lbs

Ka hona, a 4×8 3/16 letlapa la aluminium e ka ba boima ba hoo e ka bang 0.049 liponto.
