Judging by your popular media, you only use metric in science fiction shows where the distances between spaceships is so big the number is effectively meaningless.
Longing for the day you start using kilograms instead of points for weight in your movies and tv shows. I always have to pause and grab my phone to convert.
- timbit42 4y agoThe hardest part is remembering that a kg is about twice as heavy as a lb so kgs are about half. This is accurate give or take about 10%. 2.2 lbs per kg. Multiply by 2 and add 10%. eg. 5 kg x 2 = 10 + 10% (1) = ~11 lbs. 0.45 kgs per lb. Divide by 2 and subtract 10%. eg. 11 lbs / 2 = 5.5 - 10% (0.55) = ~5 kg.
