[object Object],LENGTH 1 m = 100 cm = 1000 mm = 10 6  μm = 10 9  nm 1 km = 1000 m = 0.6214 mi 1 in = 2.540 cm 1 ft = 30.48 cm 1 yd = 91.44 cm
TIME 1 min = 60 s 1 h = 3600 s 1 d = 86,400 s 1 y = 365.24 d = 3.156 x 10 7  s
MASS 1 kg = 10 3  g = 2.205 lb
VOLUME 1 liter= 1000 mL = 1000 cm 3  = 1 dm 3  = 10 -3  m 3 1 ft 3  = 0.02832 m 3  = 28.32 liters = 7.477 gallons 1 gallon = 3.788 liters
