Skill - Model: Lets learn how to convert between some metric and imperial measures

I know that 1 inch = 2.5 cm so if I want to find 3 inches I need to multiply 2.5 x 3 = 7.5 3 Inches = 7.5 cm

Inches to cm Pounds to grams

I know that 1 pound = 450g so if I want to find 4 pounds I need to multiply 450 x 4 = 1,800 4 pounds = 1800g (1.8Kg)

Pints to ml

I know that 1 pint = 570ml So if I wanted to find 5 pints I need to multiply 570 x 5 = 2850 5 pints = 2850ml (2.85L)
