About Converting Carats per Pint to Long tons per Cubic foot
Carat per Pint and Long ton per Cubic foot both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
long tons per cubic foot = carats per pint × 0.0000117798017642
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 carat per pint equals 0.422675283773 base units, and 1 long ton per cubic foot equals 35881.3579577 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct carat per pint-to-long ton per cubic foot factor of 0.0000117798017642.
Simple example
1 ct/pt × 0.00001177980176 = 0.0000117798 long ton/ft3
1 carat per pint = 0.0000117798 long tons per cubic foot.
Real-world example
1,000 ct/pt × 0.00001177980176 = 0.0117798018 long ton/ft3
1,000 carats per pint = 0.0117798018 long tons per cubic foot.

What is a carat per pint?
Carat per Pint (ct/pt) is a unit of density.
What is a long ton per cubic foot?
Long ton per Cubic foot (long ton/ft3) is a unit of density.
Is the carat per pint to long ton per cubic foot conversion exact?
Yes. Both carat per pint and long ton per cubic foot are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.00001177980176 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
