The advantage in Metric measurements is that all the units are divided into lots of ten, one hundred, onethousand and so on this makes working out the mathematics involved far easier.
In Australia the money system prior to the decimal system went like this. 12 Penney's in a shilling, 20 shillings in a pound. so you would end up with amounts like 2pounds/5shillings/and sixpence, 2/5/6 which then would have to be added to other similar numbers.
Imperial.
A tonne is a metric measurement.
The metric system has the advantage of base 10 conversion. There are 100 centimeters to a meter, 1000 milliliters to a liter, and 1000 grams to a kilogram. This means that so long as you are using Base 10 for your calculations, all you have to do to move a decimal point.
I'm guessing by customary, you mean imperial. if so inches are customary/imperial
A metric tonne is lighter than the imperial equivalent by roughly 16 kg. The imperial ton weighs 2,240 lbs (or 1,016 kg), while the metric tonne is 1,000 kg.
A gallon is certainly not metric. It is imperial.
Imperial.
Metric tons can't be converted to imperial gallons. Metric tons measure mass, while imperial gallons measure volume.
There is no such thing as a metric gallon. The metric measurement is litres. There are 4.54609188 litres to an imperial gallon.
A tonne is a metric measurement.

The opposing systems are imperial and metric, not customary. But, meters are metric.

74.480 Tonne. No need to use the word metric . A Tonne is metric , whereas a Ton is Imperial. They are spelled differently so that we all know which is Metric and which is Imperial.
No. It is imperial.
It is neither.
