THE METRIC SYSTEM AND EQUIVALENTS
LINEAR MEASURE
SQUARE MEASURE
1 Centimeter = 10 Millimeters = 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 = 0.386 Sq Miles
WEIGHTS
CUBIC MEASURE
1 Gram = 0 001 Kilograms = 1000 Milligrams = 0.035 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 Kilograms =
1 Megagram = 1.1 Short Tons
LIQUID MEASURE
TEMPERATURE
s/s (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
320 Fahrenheit is equivalent to 0° Celsius
s/s (C + 32) = °F
