1. The MKS system - and more specifically the SI is an international standard. It helps when everybody uses the same units.
2. SI uses prefixes for larger and smaller units, based on powers of 10. This makes conversion very simple. For example, to convert kilometers to meters, just multiply by 1000. With just a little practice, this can be done in your head, without pencil and paper.

The centimetre-gram-second system (abbreviated CGS or cgs) is a metric system of physical units based on centimetre as the unit of length, gram as a unit of mass, and second as a unit of time. All CGS mechanical units are unambiguously derived from these three base units, but there are several different ways of extending the CGS system to cover electromagnetism.CGS approach to electromagnetic units The conversion factors relating electromagnetic units in the CGS and SI systems are much more involved - so much so that formulas for physical laws of electromagnetism are adjusted depending on what system of units one uses. refer to link below for methods

The cgs system. That is centimeter-gram-second measurement system.
FPS - Foot, Pound, Second is the English system CGS - Centimeter, Gram, Second is the metric system Second in both systems are equal
What is the unis of stress in cgs system
it cannot be mixed but it can be convert from SI--> CGS and CGS-->SI
The cgs power unit is the erg, a dyne-centimeter.

CGS is NOT common nowadays. MKS is common because the SI, the international system of units, is based on it.
There isn't one except by converting all the dimensions in the definition of an ampere into cgs units.
It seems there have been different "CGS" units, and the definition of units, specifically in the electrical area, varies between them. You would first have to decide WHICH cgs system you want to work with.
A barye is a unit of pressure under the CGS system.
CGS is NOT widely used. It was in the past. The only system of measurement that is widely used today is the SI, which is a variety of MKS.

Centimetre gram second system of units
The relevant SI bases are MKS.Length: cgs system uses centimetre, MKS uses metre = 100 centimetres. Mass: cgs system uses grams, MKS uses kilogram = 1000 grams. Time: they both use seconds.
