Metric measurements use powers of 10 to create larger and smaller units.
Imperial measurements are based on multiples of various numbers eg 16 ozs in a pound, 14 pounds in a stone etc. Metric measurements are based on multiples of 10 eg 1000 grams in a kilogram etc. This makes Metric measurements easier to use in calculations.
Linear measurements in the metric system are based on the meter, which is the fundamental unit of length. Other units such as centimeters, millimeters, and kilometers are derived from the meter using prefixes.

Metric units of measurement are more fun to say.
never they say they will when every one is used to metric measurements
