How? You can literally understand it with counting your fingers.

Imperial is defined in terms of SI units these days, so it's quite useless.
>>
>imperial unit for mass : check
>imperial unit for length : check
>imperial unit for time : ??

where the fuck is imperial "time"?

you shouldn't use second/minute/hour should you?

>still using "imperial system"
It's like it was meant for uneducated Africans or some shit.
One feet, One inch etc. It sounds like 4 year old is trying to get all the body parts right

Since time is arranged in hours, minutes, seconds from the bigger one to the smaller one, is not it right to put the date on year, month, day as well?
YYYY / MM / DD HH : MM : SS, this should be.
>>
>>68660987
quite easy
4 km = 1.02 ri
1 km = 9.16 chou
1 meter = 3.3 shaku
so if you are 5 shaku 8 sun, you are 175 cm

metric is flawed because base-10 is an inherently flawed numerical system

No that's dumb

Imperial time is still in use. 24 hours a day - 60 minute a hour. Metric (decimal) time had 1 day = 10 hours, 1 hour = 100 minutes, but it failed for some reason and never was popular.

There's a handy trick for converting fahrenheit to celsius and vice versa. You can do it quickly in your head.

>°C (2)+30=°F

So

>5°C (2)+30=°F
>10+30=°F
>5°C = 40°F
(To go from °F to °C just subtract 30 and divide by 2)

It works between 0°F and 100°F and is accurate withing +/- 2°F
>>
Keep silent and use the international unit system.
Is it a non-civilized country?
>>
celsius > fahrenheit

miles > kilometers

liters > gallons

inches > centimeters

pounds > kilograms

Objectively correct.

>>68661779
no

>>68661779
>Celsius>Fahrenheit
Why

>>68661779
No, sorry.
