SI unit is meters

kilometer (km) 1000 m

meter (m) 1 m

centimeter (cm) 1/100 m

millimeter 1/1000 m

USED MOSTLY IN CHEMISTRY, Biology, etc.

micrometer (um) 1/10-6) m (1/1000000 m)

nanometer (nm) 1/10-9) m (1/1000000000 m)

Angstrom (A (accented A)) (1/10-10 m)

These are the most common units; although since meters is an SI unit any prefix can be affixed. However, since 1 petameter is 1X1015 meters, its not often used; likewise with picometers.

For imperial units

1 league=3 miles (mi)

1 mile=1760 yards (yd)

1 yard =3 feet (ft)

1 foot =12 inches (in)

1 in=2.54 cm (this is an EXACT value, not an approximation)

Less common imerial units:

1 nautical mile=6080 feet

1 cable=608 feet

1 furlong=660 feet=110 fathoms

1 fathom=2 yd=6 ft
