THE METRIC SYSTEM WONDERLAND or THE WONDERS OF THE METRIC SYSTEM
Two main reasons.One is standardization. The metric system was designed to replace several different standards that existed before. If everybody uses the same system, things are much easier.The other is its ease of use. For example, in the metric system, 1 kilometer is 1000 meters. To convert 17 kilometers to meters, just add 3 zeroes. Now, try converting 17 miles to feet! For another example, try to add 5'7" + 7'8". The equivalent in the (decimal) metric system is much easier.Two main reasons.One is standardization. The metric system was designed to replace several different standards that existed before.

Most of the world uses the metric system for measurement. The main units used outside of the U.S.A. is the metric system or SI (System Internationale).
