:A rescale value is not necessary in theory. If you have 50 units of liquid fuel with a density of 0.005 Mg per unit liquid fuel it all works out. In fact the unit “liters” is basically used only to have a common unit to make the life a bit easier.

I love that wet mass/dry mass calculation: where is the rescale factor (1.25)? That factor rescales the volumes by 1.95! NWM (talk) 08:57, 22 July 2014 (CDT)

A rescale value is not necessary in theory. If you have 50 units of liquid fuel with a density of 0.005 Mg per unit liquid fuel it all works out. In fact the unit “liters” is basically used only to have a common unit to make the life a bit easier. If you are talking about the paragraph below the formulas: This wasn't written by me so I can't comment how legit that is. — xZise [talk] 10:57, 22 July 2014 (CDT)
