Common Mistakes

  • Round-trip check: convert your megajoules figure to watt-hours, then convert back with the reverse tool — landing on the original number confirms both direction and factor. Skipping this check is how a flipped ratio survives into reports and homework.

  • Direction is the classic slip: Megajoules → Watt-hours multiplies by 277.77778, never by 0.0036. If the watt-hours answer is off by roughly that factor, the ratio ran backwards — confirm the arrow and re-enter the value.
