Explain Measurement Conversions in details?

The following tables show measurements of length, distance, and weight converted from one system to the other.

Length and Distance - English to Metric

1 in = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m = 2.54 x 10-5 km

1 ft = 30.48 cm = 0.3048 m = 3.048 x 10-4 km

1 mi = 1.609 x 105 cm = 1609 m = 1.609 km

Length and Distance - Metric to English

1 cm = 0.3937 in = 0.03281 ft = 6.214 x 10-6 mi

1 m = 39.3 in = 3.281 ft = 6.214 x 10-4 mi

1 km = 39,370 in = 3281 ft = 0.6214 mi

Weight - English to Metric

1 oz = 28 g = 0.028 kg

1 lb = 448 g = 0.448 kg

1 ton = 8.96 x 104g = 896 kg

Weight - Metric to English

1 g = 0.0357 oz = 2.23 x 10-3 lb = 1.12 x 10-6 tons

1 kg = 35.7 oz = 2.23 lb = 0.00115 tons
