3 Reasons to Use the Metric System

Wondering why we use the metric system? Here are 3 quick reasons we can think of off the tops of our heads.

1. Most other countries in the world have already completely converted to using the metric system. International business is much easier when there's a standardized method of measurement.

2. The metric system was created by scientists, so it's logic-based and exact.

3. There are only seven base units in the metric measuring system - compared to the 24 found in the inch-pound system.
