To make 1 p.p.m. solution add 1 milligram of chemical in 1 litre of water
To make 1% solution add 10 grams (10000 milligrams) of chemical in 1 litre of water
p.p.m. = percent x 10000
percent = p.p.m. ÷ 1000

Formula to convert Fahrenheit to Centigrade :

Area of a square or a rectangle = length x width
Area of a triangle = ½ base x height
Area of a circle = 3.14 x square of radius
Volume of a square or rectangular pit = length x width x height
Volume of a round pit = Square of radius x 3.14 x depth

To estimate the number of trees which can be acommodated per acre / hectare use the following formula
Area of the plot ÷ [Distance between two trees x Distance between two rows] = Number of trees
Example : In 1 acre plot how many trees can be planted if the distance between 2 trees is 3 meters & the distance between 2 rows is 4 meters?
.:. 1 acre = 4404 sq. meters
.:. 4404 ÷ [3 x 4] = 367 trees
