Metric and Imperial Conversions Length - Area - Capacity & Volume - Weight - US measures -Temperature

Some useful conversion (imperial, metric), length, area, capacity,weight, US measures and temperture factors.

Length Area - Capacity & Volume - Weight - US measures - Temperature

1 centimetre (cm) = 10 millimetres (mm) = 0.3937 inches (in)

1 decimetre (dm) = 10 cm = 3.937 inches

1 metre (m) = 10 dm = 100 cm = 1.0936 yards (yds)

1 kilometre (km) = 1000 m = 0.6214 miles (M)

1 inch (in) = 2.54 cm

1 foot (ft) =12 inch = 30.48 cm

1 yd = 3 ft = 36 in = 0.9144 m

1 mile =1760 yd = 1.6093 km

Area Length - Capacity & Volume - Weight - US measures - Temperature

1 sq cm = 100 sq mm = 0.155 sq in

1 sq metre = 10,000 sq cm = 1.196 sq yd

1 sq km = 100 hectares (ha) = 0.3861 sq mile

1 sq inch = 6.4516 sq cm

1 sq yard = 9 sq ft = 0.8361 sq m

1 sq mile = 640 acres = 2.59 sq km
