Metric System The metric system is a way of accurately measuring in units. It is the same for everyone who uses it so there is no confusion. There are three main base units: meter (length/height) gram (mass/weight) and liter (volume). Along with the base units there are prefixes that tell the power of 10 the base unit is. The standard/imperial system is much harder to remember both names and conversions. I believe we should switch to the metric system.
