The problem with the English Imperial system is that there's a different
conversion factor for every unit ... potentially 100 different numbers to
answer your question. If you'll choose one, two, or three specific English
Imperial units, we'll give you their conversion factors to/from metric units,
although those numbers are easily found on line.

First, there is no "English". Second, there are hundreds on conversion factors between the near-obsolete (conventional) and metric systems. For mass alone, for example, there are conversions from grain to milligram, ounce to gram, pound to kilogram, stone to kilogram, hundredweight to kilogram, Imperial ton to metric ton. There are more that these.

Decibels are a logarithmic measure of a factor or a ratio and that has really nothing to do with metric or imperal.
It is a multiple of 10.
Kilogram is the metric unit and pound is the imperial unit for mass. 1 Kilogram is 2.204 pounds. So we multiply kg by 2.204 to get the equivalent pounds. Answer in pounds is equal to 1
Metric to English conversion is a good thing to practice.
Your question makes little sense. There are no specific metric subjects. Metric is a system of measurement as is Imperial. They are each readily converted to the other using the appropriate conversion factor.
a conversion factor is a number that converts units of one system of measurement to another (usually by multiplication)examples: (conversion factors in brackets)lengthinches (*25.4)= millimetresmiles (*1.609)= kilometresweightlbs (* 0.4536)= kilogramstons/imperial(*1.016)= tonnes/metric

It depends on which measurement or unit you want to convert. Each and every different unit has its own conversion factor.

Metric: millilitres. Imperial: fluid ounces. English: none - there is no such system.
"Metric conversion" refers to the change from English units of measurement to metric units.
Once you look up the conversion factor, it is just a matter of multiplication.
The conversion factor between metric tons (t) and kilograms (kg) is 1,000. This means that 1 metric ton is equal to 1,000 kilograms. To convert from metric tons to kilograms, you multiply the weight in metric tons by 1,000. To convert from kilograms to metric tons, you divide the weight in kilograms by 1,000.
The study of metric system and units are important as it give a simple conversion factors. Metric units always goes by the powers of 10 that the calculations becomes easier to deal with than imperial where the conversion factors differ by its units.
