The following system can help you convert ANY two compatible units (for example, one unit of length to another unit of length). In any case, you need to know the conversion factor (which you can look up in the Wikipedia, among others). As an example, let's say you want to convert 15 inches to centimeters. The conversion factor 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Write this conversion factor as 1 inch / 2.54 cm, or as 2.54 cm / 1 inch. Both are equal to one. Multiplying by one won't change a measurement. Now, to convert the 15 inches to cm, you write either:15 inches x (1 inch / 2.54 cm)or:15 inches x (2.54 cm / 1 inch)Simplify, if you can. Only one of the two conversions does something useful - in this case, it is the second one, because the units cancel. The first conversion doesn't give you useful information, since the units come out as square inches / cm. Even though this is technically correct, but doesn't simplify the answer, so you just discard this option.
