Yes, that is correct. Most countries have officially adopted the SI (metric) system, and use it... most of the time. There are some exceptions for specific units; for example, in the non-scientific community, degrees centigrade is usually used for temperature (instead of kelvin), and time is often measured in minutes, hours, days, and years (instead of just using seconds).
Yes, most countries around the world use the metric system as their standard system of measurement. The metric system is a decimal-based system that is widely adopted in many countries for its ease of use and consistency.
There are only three countries that have not officially adopted the metric system as their system of measurement: the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar.
The US and I believe Liberia are the remaining two standouts which have not adopted the SI (metric) system. But the SI system is legal in the US, even if not formally adopted.
The metric system is widely used globally, particularly in countries like France, Germany, and Japan. The United States is one of the few countries that has not fully adopted the metric system, although it is commonly used in scientific and medical fields.
The metric system was officially adopted in the Philippines in 1861, during the Spanish colonial era. It was implemented to standardize measurements and promote trade and communication with other countries that were using the metric system. Today, the metric system is widely used in the Philippines for all official purposes and in everyday life.

No. Congress can decide whether or not the metric system is adopted by the US, but the metric system exists and is used by developed countries whatever Congress choses to do.
Possibly in countries that have still not adopted the metric system.

They're the only three countries that haven't adopted the metric system.
Those two nations are both Liberia, Myanmar, and the USA.
Most of Europe have adopted the metric system.

Yes. China adopted the metric system around 1900.
Because 99% of the rest of the world uses it. There's only 3 countries which have not adopted the system: the United States, Myanmar and Liberia.
