THE METRIC SYSTEM AND EQUIVALENTS
LINEAR MEASURE
SQUARE MEASURE
1 Centimeter =10 Millimters = 0.01 Meters = 0. 3937 Inches
1 Sq Centimeter = 100 Sq Millimeters = 0.155 Sq Inches
1 Meter = 100 Centimeters = 1000 Millimeters=39. 37 Inches
1 Sq Meter = 10,000 Sq Centimeters=10.76 Sq Feet
1 Kilometer =1000 Meters = 0.621 Miles
1 Sq Kilometer = 1,000,000 Sq Meters = 0.0386 Sq Miles
HEIGHTS
CUBlC MEASURE
1 Gram = 0.001 Kilograms = 1000 Milligrams=(J .035 Ounces
1 Cu Centimeter = 1000 Cu Millimeters = 0.06 Cu Inches
1 Kilogram = 1000 Grams = 2.2 Lb
1 Cu Meter = 1,000,000 Cu Centimeters = 35.31 Cu Feet
1 Metric Ton = 1000 Kiloqrams = 1 Meqagram = 1.1 Short Tons
LIQUID MEASURE
TEMPERATURE
5/9 (°F - 32) = °C
1 Milliliter = 0.001 Liters = 0.0338 Fluid Ounces
212° Fahrenheit is equivalent to 100° Celsius
1 Liter = 1000 Milliliters=33.82 Fluid Ounces
90° Fahrenheit is equivalent to 32.2° Celsius
32° Fahrenheit is equivalent to 0° Celsius
9/5 C° + 32 = F°
