The United States is the main country still using US customary units (inches, pounds, gallons, Fahrenheit) in daily life, while nearly everywhere else — the UK, Canada, Australia, the UAE and Europe — uses the metric system (centimetres, kilograms, litres, Celsius). This chart puts the everyday conversions side by side so you can switch between them instantly, whether you're travelling, cooking, studying or shopping online across borders.
The key numbers to remember: 1 inch = 2.54 cm, 1 pound = 0.454 kg, 1 US gallon = 3.785 litres, and for temperature, subtract 32 and multiply by 5/9 to go from Fahrenheit to Celsius. For any other unit or an exact figure, use our length, weight, volume and temperature converters.
