 9. Calculating the liveweight of an animal pig (use inches or centimeters in measuring)

A) ENGLISH VERSION CALCULATION

a. FORMULA 1 = heart girth x heart girth x body length Example: 45” X 45” X 54”
______________________________ ______________
400 400

= Animal weight in Pounds = 273 lbs/pounds

____________
2.205 lbs

= 123.8 kls

B) METRIC VERSION CALCULATION

b. FORMULA 2 = Heart Girth X Heart Girth X Body Length X 69.3 EXAMPLE = 1.27m X 1.27m X 1.02m

= body measurement X 69.3 = 1.6129m X 1.02 m

= animal weight in kilos = 1.645158m X 69.3

= 114. kilos
