When converting from one system of measuring to another (say imperial to metric) sometimes its by multiplying or dividing, but its just more convinient to make it always by multiplication.

Say, grams to ounces = grams / 28.35 = ounces,
but grams * 0.0353 gives the same result
I use metric units, such as meters, kilograms, and liters for measurements.
You use conversion factors.
You can use the same units (energy units) for both.
Why scientist use SI unitsSo all scientists no matter what country their in can do the experiment and know how much of a specific material to use. It is because the length of each person varies.But SI units show exact length whenever it is taken.
Yes, equations can change when you change the system of units because the numerical values of constants can vary. When switching between standards, such as using imperial or metric measurements, conversions may be necessary to ensure consistency in the equations and calculations. It's important to account for unit changes to maintain accurate results.
Maybe Multiplacation is the most struggling things in math but once you learn multiplacation you will know division and trust me you will have to use multiplacation or divsion in the furture but, if your in elementary you get use to it and get better and better!! Good Luck!!:)
How do you change metric units?
The answer is 2,166 Did someone use a calculator?? JK
A multiplacation sentence is excactly what it says it is! EXAMPLE: 9x9=? 1x9=? 3x8=? That is a multiplacation sentence.
Dividing fractions invole multiplacation because you can use it too see how many time's a number goes into another answer. And that is why dividing involves multiplacation.
You need use fractions, addition, multiplacation, and divison for everyday use
the person who invented multiplacation is very smart and takes the easy way
Use a conversion factor
You'll need another number to perform multiplication. Until then, your 17 won't change.
draw two dots and a line beetween them.
Standard conversion factors are available and published and you use these to convert units from one to the other
use a conversion factor.
