conversions between the u.s. customary and the metric systems of measurement
units of length | units of weight | units of capacity
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters | 1 oz = 28.35 grams | 1 liter = 1.06 quarts
1 meter = 3.28 feet | 1 pound = 454 grams | 1 gallon = 3.79 liters
1 meter = 1.09 yards | 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds |
1 mile = 1.61 kilometers | |

Explanation:
