Study Notes
Unit Conversions
Unit conversions involve converting measurements from one unit to another within the same system or between different systems.
Metric System Conversions
Length
- 1 meter (m) = 100 centimeters (cm)
- 1 meter (m) = 1000 millimeters (mm)
- 1 kilometer (km) = 1000 meters (m)
Weight/Mass
- 1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams (g)
- 1 gram (g) = 1000 milligrams (mg)
Volume
- 1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL)
- 1 cubic meter (m³) = 1000 liters (L)
Temperature
- Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F): °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
- Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C): °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
English System Conversions
Length
- 1 foot (ft) = 12 inches (in)
- 1 yard (yd) = 3 feet (ft)
- 1 mile (mi) = 1760 yards (yd)
Weight
- 1 pound (lb) = 16 ounces (oz)
- 1 ton = 2000 pounds (lb)
Volume
- 1 fluid ounce (fl oz) = 2 tablespoons (tbsp)
- 1 cup (c) = 8 fluid ounces (fl oz)
- 1 gallon (gal) = 4 quarts (qt)
Temperature
- Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C): °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9
- Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F): °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
Conversions between Metric and English Systems
Length
- 1 meter (m) ≈ 3.28 feet (ft)
- 1 kilometer (km) ≈ 0.62 miles (mi)
Weight
- 1 kilogram (kg) ≈ 2.20 pounds (lb)
- 1 gram (g) ≈ 0.04 ounces (oz)
Volume
- 1 liter (L) ≈ 1.06 quarts (qt)
- 1 cubic meter (m³) ≈ 35.31 cubic feet (ft³)
Note: These conversions are approximate, as the exact conversions depend on the specific units and contexts.
