8x6 is actually twice as big as the average!!??

1 metre = 10 decimetre = 100 centimetre = 1 000 millimetre = 1 000 000 micrometre = 1 000 000 000 nanometre = 1 000 000 000 000 picometre = …

1 metre = 0.1 decametre = 0.01 hectometre = 0.001 kilometre = 0.000001 megametre = 0.000000001 gigametre = 0.000000000001 terametre…

Metre can be changed with any other unit you wish (such as grams, seconds, volts, amperes, hertz etc.).
Prefixes are always based on exponent of 10 (10^1, 10^2, 10^3, 10^6, 10^9, 10^12, … and 10^-1, 10^-2, 10^-3, 10^-6, 10^-9, 10^-12, …) so it’s far more simple than 1 foot = 12 inches, 1 mile = 1760 yard etc.

Americans and their ignorance… honestly:leftie: .

LOLOLOLOL Funniest responce I ever heard.

Spent A year and a half in Germany in 70 and 71 and learned the metric system so easy

to use why we haven’t adapted the metric system is just foolishness on our part.

Or are we just to stubborn ?

maybe we are just a little of both.

When I returned to the great U.S.A.

I was happy when in the early or mid.70es we were scheduled to make the change .

To bad we still haven’t.

Actually The reason we haven’t from what I have learned is because corporate America doesn’t want it.

This way every one needs two sets of tools.

Corporate makes twice the money.Oh well

Hahahaha
