Imperial to Metric Conversion Table | Chart
November 17, 2009
The table you will see below is of great help to Engineer in in Calculation bot in school or in the office. Most of the time this conversion constant is being forgotten and result to a wrong calculation. I believe that this will be of great help to our Engineering Vault Visitors and Regular Readers
IMPERIAL
| Length | Area | Capacity | Weight |
| 1 mile = 1760 yards
1 mile = 8 furlong 1 furlong = 10 chains 1 chain = 4 rods 1 rod = 5 1/2 yards 1 yard = 3 feet 1 foot = 12 inches |
1 sq. mile = 640 acres
1 acre = 4840 sq. yard 1 sq. yard = 9 sq. feet 1 sq. foot = 144 sq. inches |
1 gal. = 4 quarts
1 quart = 2 pints 1 pint = 4 gills 1 pint = 34.6774 inchs3 1 fl. oz. = 8 fl. drachms 1 US gal = 0.8327 gal 1 US pint = 0.8327 pint 1 US pint = 16 fl. oz. 1 yard3 = 27 feet3 1 foot3 = 1728 inches3 |
1 ton = 20 cwt
1 ton = 2240 lb. 1 ton = 1.12 US ton 1 cwt = 4 quarters 1 quarter = 2 stone. 1 stone = 14 lb. 1 lb. = 16 oz. 1 oz. = 16 drams 1 US ton = 2000 lb. |
METRIC
| Length | Area | Capacity | Weight |
| 1 km = 10 hm
1 km = 1000 m 1 hm = 100 m 1 m = 10 dm 1 dm = 10 cm 1 cm = 10 mm |
1 km2 = 100 hectares
1 hectare = 100 ares 1 are = 100 m2 1 m2 = 100 dm2 1 cm2 = 100 mm2 |
1 m3 = 1000 litres 1 litre = 1 dm3 1 litre = 1000 cc 1 litre = 1000 ml |
1 tonne = 1000 kg
1 kg = 1000 g 1 g = 1000 mg |
IMPERIAL to METRIC
| Length | Area | Capacity | Weight |
| 1 mile = 1.609 km
1 yard = 0.9144 m 1 foot = 0.3048 m 1 inch = 25.4 mm |
1 sq. mile = 2.59 km2
1 acre = 0.4047 hectares 1 acre = 4046.86 m2 1 sq. foot = 0.0929 m2 1 sq. inch = 645.16 mm2 |
1 gallon = 4.5461 litres
1 US gallon = 3.785 litres 1 pint = 0.5683 litres 1 cu. inch = 16.3871 cm3 |
1 ton = 1.016 tonnes
1 lb. = 0.4536 kg 1 oz. = 28.3495 g 1 US ton = 0.9072 tonnes |
METRIC to IMPERIAL
| Length | Area | Capacity | Weight |
| 1 km = 0.6214 miles
1 m = 1.0936 yards 1 mm = 0.0394 inches |
1 km2 = 0.3861 mile2
1 km2 = 247.105 acres 1 hectares = 2.4711 acres 1 mm2 = 0.0016 inches2 |
1 litre = 0.22 gal.
1litre = 0.2642 US gal. 1 m3 = 219.969 gal. 1 m3 = 35.3147 feet3 |
1 tonne = 0.9842 ton
1 tonne = 1.1023 US ton 1 kg = 35.274 oz. |
TEMPERATURE
| deg. C to deg. F | deg. F to deg. C |
| deg. C x 9/5 + 32 = deg. F | (deg. F – 32) x 5/9 = deg. C |

Dear Sirs,
Pardon the ignorance, but would you be kind enough to let me know what the following stands for:
1. hm
2. dm
3. cwt
Thank you for the enlightenment.
Very truly yours,
Mann
