The metric system is accepted and used by all the scientists in the world, even American scientists, and it is also used for all measurement purposes in most of the world.
The answer is 40.64 cm (approx.). Inches and centimeters are both units of linear measurement. Inches are used in the imperial system whereas centimeters are used in the metric system. To convert from inches to cm, multiply the inch unit by 2.54.16 inch = 40.64 cm.
The answer is 13.97 cm (approx.). Inches and centimeters are both units of linear measurement. Inches are used in the imperial system whereas centimeters are used in the metric system. To convert from inches to cm, multiply the inch unit by 2.54.
The answer is 124.02 inches (approx.). Inches and centimeters are both units of linear measurement. Inches are used in the imperial system whereas centimeters are used in the metric system. To convert from cm to inches, multiply the cm unit by 0.393701.315 cm = 124 inches.
There are no "opposites" to measurement systems. There are alternative measurement systems.Earlier systems include the so-called English system, and the French avoirdupois.
The answer is 10.87 inches (approx.). Inches and centimeters are both units of linear measurement. Inches are used in the imperial system whereas centimeters are used in the metric system. To convert from cm to inches, multiply the cm unit by 0.393701.
The metric system uses easily converted, base 10, units. Imperial units, used in the USA, are archaic varied based units that often take a good deal of time to convert.
The two types of measurement systems are the metric system and the imperial system. The metric system is used worldwide and is based on units of ten, while the imperial system is primarily used in the United States and is based on historical British units.
As I remember from grade school back in the 1960's I believe it was called: "Units and Standards" We refer to the U.S. measurement system today as the "Standard Measurement," "US Standard," "English Units," "US Customary Units," and "Imperial Units."
Yes, England primarily uses the metric system for weights and measures. However, in some cases, imperial units are still used alongside metric units.
The USA is the last remaining major country to still use Imperial units. The imperial units of length are miles, yards, feet and inches
The Imperial system of measurements, originally used in England.

They didn't. Metric Units were developed independently of Imperial units. Originally each country, and sometimes different parts of the same country, had different sets of units. The Metric System was invented to solve the confusion of different units used in different parts of France. Gradually other countries adopted Metric and abolished their own units. The British Imperial units were one of the last to be abolished.
Newton (SI) and pound-weight (Imperial).
inch, foot, yard, and mile
These units are used for measurements.British units are today obsolete and ridiculous.
The litre. It's metric. They went metric in the 60s.
