Units+1

​ Find the corresponding metric conversions of the units and then solve the examples.
Most of the countries nowadays use the metric units recommended by the [|Système International d'Unités], or just SI. This standardization is important as it makes all of us around the world "speak the same language" when related to measurements. Brazil adopted the use of SI units long ago and therefore we have been using these units for a long time.

Some countries still use units that are not recommended by the SI system or Systeme International d'unitès. This happens because people from these countries still find difficult to change their habits. Usually the metric system is already taught in school in those countries but it takes time until people change them and start to use them completely.

Below you will find a table with non SI units and you are supposed to find their conversions and write exapmles of change. One example is done for you. You will find further information at [|BBC bitesize]. Good luck!

Who makes important contribution to this table will get extra points.
