  1. Search up online, but basically there’s three systems: Capacity (Litres) Distance (Metres) Weight (Grams) From there everything has prefixes. Like kilo: kilometre, kilogram Kilo means one thousand So 1 kilogram = 1000 grams Or maybe cent- Centimetre Cent- means a hundredth So 1 Centimetre = 1/100 metres It’s confusing until you see a diagram. From there it will make a lot of sense.

  2. It sounds nicer than “centimetre” but god damn it is it a pain

  3. 50 degrees Celsius is more than hot

  4. How?

  5. Will Budries but it’s not based off of anything concise. A 72 degree range is good enough for describing basic weather. Plus as Fahrenheit has no basis, large calculations are done mainly in Celsius.

  6. It’s not easier. It’s not more precise. What it is is more natural. But Celsius is more precise.

  7. Horsepower? Many cars show horsepower and kw. Inches (I believe) is because it sounds better What tf is a quintal? It is all based on the base-10 system

  8. Hp is used in conjunction with kW. The only other imperial unit is inches for tvs and feet for measuring someones height (but centimetres is more common for height)

  9. It’s not more specific, quite the opposite. Celsius was made to standardise temperature.

  10. Billions? It’s a numerical system not a space station. It would get slowly phased in to reduce costs, and basic things would have both conversions for older people

  11. Your point?

  12. What?

  13. Rather the us honestly.

  14. Celsius is easy to understand and is based off of the freezing and boiling point of water, which is easier to measure than dead or alive. Btw 30 is hot, 35 is boiling and over 40 is an oven (not literally)

  15. Not very precise. On the Celsius scale 0 is the freezing point of water and 100 is the boiling. If you need precise measurements decimals, but rarely do you need more than the whole number.
