Three temperature scales are in common use in science and industry. Two of those scales are SI metric: The degree Celsius (°C) scale was devised by dividing the range of temperature between the freezing and boiling temperatures of pure water at standard atmospheric conditions (sea level pressure) into 100 equal parts. Temperatures on this scale were at one time known as degrees centigrade, however it is no longer correct to use that terminology. [The official name was changed from "centigrade degree" to "Celsius degree" by the 9th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1948.] The kelvin (K)temperature scale is an extension of the degree Celsius scale down to absolute zero, a hypothetical temperature characterized by a complete absence of heat energy. Temperatures on this scale are called kelvins, NOT degrees kelvin, kelvin is not capitalized, and the symbol (capital K) stands alone with no degree symbol. [The official name was changed to "kelvin" and symbol "K" by the 13th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1967.] The degree Fahrenheit (°F)non-metric temperature scale was devised and evolved over time so that the freezing and boiling temperatures of water are whole numbers, but not round numbers as in the Celsius temperature scale.

YES!!! For example;- A rectangle may have sides of 3 units and 5 uints. To find the area you multiply these two sides together. Hence Area = 3 units X 5 units = 15 sq. units(square units ) Note the use of the word 'square for area units. Theis method of description is used when measurements are in the Imperial System/ However when using the Metric system, , the units are described as 'Units^2'. Volume becomes 'cu.units' ( cubic units) ; Imperial and 'units^3' ( Metric)
"Y2K" signifies "Year 2000" where the "k" represents 1,000 (used to denote 1,000 units in the metric system). Therefore, 2*1000 = 2000.
2 units.
Tells you the answer is 2*sqrt(314*pi) inches, which is approximately 62.82 inches Seriously though. Use metric units in maths it makes everything just work!
2 pounds is equivalent to approximately 0.907 kilograms in metric units.
Because metric units are based on the number 10, 100, and 1000 and not the numbers 2, 3, 4, 12, and 5280.
No, fractions are not part of metric units. Metric units are a decimal-based system of measurement that includes units such as meters, grams, and liters. Fractions are a mathematical concept used to represent values that are not whole numbers.

Probably centimetres.
Meters. It's about a yard (or 2 cubits if you prefer).
meter stick
two units of measurements are MKS and CGS systems
The metric unit for volume (capacity is the volume something holds) is the liter which is the same volume as 1,000 cu cm. This can be preceded by the metric prefixes to form "other" units, for example the milliliter (ml) is 1/1000 liter (and the same size as 1 cu cm), the centilitre (cl) is 1/100 liter. Some metric units of capacity are Liters, and Milliliters. 2 liters is equal to a 2 liter soda from the store. 250 milliliters equals 1 metric cup.
There are 7 basic units which are dimensionally independent and two supplementary units. These are: Metre (length) Kilogram (mass) Second (time) Ampere (electric current) Kelvin (thermodynamic temperature) Mole (amount of substance) Candela (luminous intensity) The two supplementary units are the radian and steradian which are measures of angles in 2 and 3 dimensional space (respectively). Additionally, there are many other units that can be derived from these and basically, if anyone wants to measure a physical or chemical characteristic, there is probably a metric unit for it. Examples: Pascal, Joule, Watt, Newton, Tesla, Henry, Coulomb, Volt, Farad, Siemens, Weber, Ohm, Lux, Lumen, Becquerel, Gray, Sievert, Hertz, Katal.
The capacity of a thimble is typically around 1 to 2 milliliters.
