∙ 11y agoThe METRIC system is based on increments of the number 10 in both volume and linear measurements. The units of linear measure are: Kilometer - 1,000; hectometer - 100; decimeter - 10; base - 1; decimeter - .1; centimeter - .01; millimeter - .001. METRIC volume is measured in kilograms, miligrams, grams, etc., which are all based on the number 10, also.
The ENGLISH system of linear measurement is based on inches, feet, yards; 12 inches in a foot, 3 feet in a yard, 5,280 feet in a mile, etc. In ENGLISH weight the measurements are based in ounces, pounds, etc., which are: 16 ounces in a pound; 2000 pounds in a ton, etc. ENGLISH volume is based on cups, pints, quarts, gallons, etc. One cup = 8 ounces; 1 pint = 2 cups or 16 ounces; 1 quart = 4 cups or 32 ounces; 1 gallon = 16 cups or 128 ounces, etc.

the greater and more larger mass of the two of them.
