      This list speaks volumes to me. The fake cheese and conversions especially bother me. The United States already uses Metric. Why not just finish the job? Technology can make this as easy as pushing a button.
      Until then:
      0 degrees C = 32 degrees F
      10 degrees C = 50 F
      20 C = 68 F
      30 C = 86 F (1:1.8 ratio per degree)
      500 ml = 16.9 fl oz
      1 litre = 33.8 fl oz
      3.78 litres = 128 fl oz (1 gallon)
      2.54 cm = 1 in
      1609 m = 1 mi
      88 kph = 55 mph
      80 kph = 50 mph
      60 kph = 40 mph
      50 kph = 30 mph
      40 kph = 25 mph
      1 kg = 2.2046 lbs
      454 g = 1 lb
      28 g = 1 oz
      ...yeah, I wish the U.S. would ditch the non-decimal measurements already. Maybe keep them during a transition period but people have had decades to learn this here!

      @michaelsommers2356 Před 4 lety +10

      The US does not use imperial units. Our units have the same names as imperial units, but often the values are different. And the imperial system was not invented until 1825, by which time we had been independent for 50 years.
