Answer 2

Some common metric units of measurement are kilometers, meters, and centimeters. Many of the units used in the metric system are part of the SI international system of units used in the sciences.

Answer 3

Length

The standard unit of length in the metric system is the meter. Other units of length and their equivalents in meters are as follows:
1 millimeter = 0.001 meter
1 centimeter = 0.01 meter
1 decimeter = 0.1 meter
1 kilometer = 1000 meters

Volume

The standard unit of volume in the metric system is the liter. One liter is equal to 1000 cubic centimeters in volume. Other units of volume and their equivalents in liters are as follows:
1 milliliter = 0.001 liter
1 centiliter = 0.01 liter
1 deciliter = 0.1 liter
1 kiloliter = 1000 liters

Mass

The standard unit of mass in the metric system is the gram. Other units of mass and their equivalents in grams are as follows:
1 milligram = 0.001 gram
1 centigram = 0.01 gram
1 decigram = 0.1 gram
1 kilogram = 1000 grams

Time

The following conversions are useful when working with time:
1 minute = 60 seconds
1 hour = 60 minutes = 3600 seconds
1 day = 24 hours
1 week = 7 days
1 year = 365 1/4 days (for the Earth to travel once around the sun)

Answer 4

Charts, as printable pieces of paper, are commonly made to ISO Standards. The A series, of which A4 is a common typing page size. A0 requires 20 (1) sheets to make 1 sq metre. A4 requires 24 (16) sheets to make 1 sq metre.

And the sides of the sheet are of the ratio of 1:2-2 = approx 1: 0.707.

There is also a B series with similar logic, but different dimensions.

Answer 5

The units of the metric system are arranged in factors of ten. These are the prefixes used. (To convert, divide or move the decimal point for a given value.)
