Definition
折合 (zhé hé) means 'to convert' — to change a value from one unit, currency, or scale to another (e.g., euros to yuan). Unlike 等于 (děng yú), which expresses strict mathematical equality within the same system, 折合 involves a conversion factor between different systems. 相当 (xiāng dāng) as a verb is more abstract, meaning 'to correspond to' in rank or quality, not an active conversion.
