The opposing systems are imperial and metric, not customary. But, meters are metric.
Depends on if by 'customary' you're referring to a short ton or a long ton. A short ton is less than a metric ton; a long ton is more than a metric ton.
Some similarities of the metric and customary systems
A formula is neither metric nor customary. Sometimes the same formula will apply for both systems, only the units will change: for example, average speed = distance/time. In other cases the coefficients may change.
1 liter of water has nominally 1 kilogram of mass.1 metric ton = 1,000 kilograms1 cubic meter = 1,000 litersSo 1 cubic meter of water would be 1 metric ton of mass.
millimeter
The customary units are ones we use everyday. metric units usually have the word meter on it. my teacher taught me meter metric no meter no metric.
1 meter = 39.3701 inches.
Millimeter is one thousandth of a meter. It is the metric unit of length. The SI unit is meter.
It is a customary unit.
In the SI system (metric), length is a meter, mass is the kilogram, and time is the second.
The pound is NOT a metric unit.
It is customary.
A metric mile is a distance of a mile rounded to an approximate round number in meters. 1600 m is a good number for a metric mile. An actual mile is 1609.344 m. A metric mile set at 1600 m contains 5249.34 ft.
It can be more or less. An once (customary) is bigger than a gram (metric) but a pound (customary) is smaller than a kilogram (metric).
