Metric measurement is a system of measurement used worldwide that is based on units such as meters, liters, and grams. It provides a common language for measuring quantities like length, volume, and mass accurately. The metric system uses prefixes to easily scale measurements up or down by powers of 10, making conversions straightforward.
There are only three countries that have not officially adopted the metric system as their system of measurement: the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar.
The three base units in the metric system are the meter for length, the kilogram for mass, and the second for time.
This is one question where no clear "yes" or "no" can be given. Metric system is a general term for several systems of units. SI is one of them, based (among other units) on meter, kilogram, second. It is in the subcategory of MKS (thus called for those three base units). Older systems (also labelled "metric systems) were often CGS, in other words, the base units included centimeter, gram, and second.
The United States of America is the only industrialized country that does not use the metric system as its primary system of measurement. Of course, scientists use the metric system even in the USA. But most Americans use the English system instead.
We learned the metric system in math today.

This is one question where no clear "yes" or "no" can be given. Metric system is a general term for several systems of units. SI is one of them, based (among other units) on meter, kilogram, second. It is in the subcategory of MKS (thus called for those three base units). Older systems (also labelled "metric systems) were often CGS, in other words, the base units included centimeter, gram, and second.
The units are: -- Kilogram -- Meter -- Second. All of the other units in the metric system are fractions, multiples, or combinations of these three.
As of 2016, the only countries that do not use the metric system are the US, Burma and Liberia. All other countries use the metric system.
Only three countries still cling to the "English" system, whereas the whole world uses metric. The SI units were established in 1960 as part of a review of the metric system used at the time; it uses metric units because it is the current version of the metric system.
