FAQ

How many cm in an inch?

1 inch equals exactly 2.54 centimeters (cm). This is the international standard, so 1 in = 2.54 cm. Conversely, 1 centimeter equals approximately 0.3937 inches.

How many pounds in a kilogram? How many kg in a pound?

1 kilogram (kg) equals approximately 2.2046 pounds (lb). 1 pound equals approximately 0.4536 kilograms.

How do you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Celsius to Fahrenheit formula: °F = °C × 9/5 + 32. Fahrenheit to Celsius formula: °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. For example: 0°C = 32°F, 100°C = 212°F, 37°C (body temperature) ≈ 98.6°F.

How many km in a mile? How many miles in a km?

1 mile equals approximately 1.6093 kilometers (km). 1 kilometer equals approximately 0.6214 miles. For example: 100 km ≈ 62 miles, 100 miles ≈ 161 km.

How many square feet in a square meter?

1 square meter (m²) equals approximately 10.7639 square feet (sq ft). 1 square foot equals approximately 0.0929 square meters.

How many liters in a gallon?

1 US gallon equals approximately 3.785 liters. 1 UK (imperial) gallon equals approximately 4.546 liters. 1 liter equals approximately 0.2642 US gallons or 0.22 UK gallons.

Why is temperature conversion not simple multiplication?

Temperature scales have different zero points: 0°C = 32°F, not 0°F. The relationship is linear (not proportional), so you need to add/subtract an offset before multiplying/dividing by the conversion factor.

How many ounces in a gram?

1 gram equals approximately 0.0353 ounces (oz). 1 ounce equals approximately 28.35 grams. 1 pound equals 16 ounces, which is approximately 453.6 grams.

About Unit Conversion

Unit conversion is the process of converting the measurement of a physical quantity from one unit of measurement to another. There are three major unit systems used worldwide: the International System of Units (SI, also known as the metric system), the Imperial/US Customary system, and various traditional units. The metric system uses meters, kilograms, and seconds as base units and is the official standard in most countries. Imperial units (feet, pounds, Fahrenheit) are primarily used in the United States and partially in the UK. Chinese traditional units include li, zhang, chi, cun (length), jin, liang (mass), and mu (area), which remain common in daily life.

Length conversions are based on the meter (m): 1 kilometer = 1000 meters, 1 centimeter = 0.01 meters, 1 inch = 0.0254 meters (2.54 cm), 1 foot = 0.3048 meters, 1 mile = 1609.344 meters. Mass conversions are based on the kilogram (kg): 1 gram = 0.001 kg, 1 pound ≈ 0.4536 kg, 1 ounce ≈ 28.35 g.

Temperature conversion differs from proportional length/mass conversions because scales have different zero points: Celsius sets water's freezing point at 0°C and boiling point at 100°C; Fahrenheit uses 32°F (freezing) and 212°F (boiling); Kelvin starts at absolute zero (0 K = -273.15°C). Conversions require both offset and scaling.

Area conversions are based on the square meter: 1 km² = 1,000,000 m², 1 hectare = 10,000 m², 1 square foot ≈ 0.0929 m², 1 acre ≈ 4046.86 m². For volume: 1 cubic meter = 1000 liters, 1 liter = 1000 milliliters, 1 US gallon ≈ 3.785 liters, 1 UK gallon ≈ 4.546 liters.

Data storage uses binary prefixes: 1 KB = 1024 B, 1 MB = 1024 KB, 1 GB = 1024 MB, 1 TB = 1024 GB. Note that hard drive manufacturers often use decimal prefixes (1 GB = 1000 MB) for labeling, while operating systems use binary, causing reported capacity to be slightly less than advertised.
