how would the US metric system help you?
The US does not use the metric system.
How do the US use the metric system?
The metric system is used in many scientific fields and industries in the US, such as in laboratories, engineering, and international trade. However, the US primarily uses the Imperial system for everyday measurements like distance, weight, and volume.
What is the advantage of metric system from English system?
The metric system in universal around the world whereas the customary system is only used in the US. For this reason scientists and mathmeticians all use the metric system because it creates a sort of universal language so there is no translating.
Do your think we should use the metric or English system in the US?
Personally I think the metric system is better because it is easier in my opinion. When you think about it though, pretty much every teacher in the US has taught their students through the metric system and to change it would be complicated and the parents would even be confused too.
Why does the US keep the English system of measurement?
The United States continues to use the English system of measurement due to historical precedent, inertia, and the costs associated with transitioning to the metric system. Some industries and sectors have already adopted the metric system, but a nationwide shift has not occurred.
