In FTB direwolf I have a setup of steam dynamos that put their power to a Tessaract. the Tessaract runs my quarries and I want to know how many dynamos it takes to power my quarries.
I want to calculate the difference between 80 RF and what that is in MJ.
I don't need to convert it because that is what the Tessaract is for.

Quarries run on Minecraft Joules, or MJ.
RF converts to MJ at a rate of 10:1, so 80RF is 8 MJ. Also, you don't need a tesseract to convert RF to MJ, you just need an energy conduit that is connected to a MJ consuming machine.
As for how many dynamos you need to power a quarry, quarries take up to 100MJ per tick (MJ/t), but will run perfectly fine on 25MJ/t.
To produce 100MJ/t, you will need 13 dynamos, which will be capable of producing a total of 104MJ/t (1040RF/t). They'll auto-throttle to produce only as much as is requested, so one will likely only run at 4MJ/t (40RF/t).
