Converter’s Creed Raise your right hand repeat after me! I (state your name) am aware that converting between units may seem weird and confusing. However, I am also aware of my ability to accomplish anything that I want to, especially when I maintain a positive attitude. I vow to keep an open mind and refrain from complaining as I begin to learn about these processes. I will be successful in the end.

The Metric System The system of measurement utilized by the International System of Units or the Système International d'Unités (SI). This system was established to provide consistency related to weights and measures and is the primary system of measurement used around the world (however, not in the United States). Each measurement within this system consists of a base unit (liter, meter, gram, etc. ) usually attached to a prefix (kilo, hecto, deca, deci, centi, milli, etc. ). One can easily navigate, or convert, within the metric system by multiplying or dividing by a power of 10. In other words, by simply moving the decimal point to the right or the left, it is possible to convert from one unit of measure to another within this system. Example 5 kilometers = 5, 000 millimeters Each of these conversions were made by simply moving the decimal point to the right or the left
