DID YOU KNOW?
that you can divide 1 meter
by exactly
10 equal parts
(10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm)

then make a cube
(1000 cm³)
of it to fill with water
and you will find that it
contains exactly
1 L (1 liter)
(1000 mL) of water
and is the mass
of exactly
1 kg (1 kilogram) (1000 g)

The International System of Units is called "SI"
and is the Metric Measurement used in America.

Using a unique hands-on, common sense approach
for a better basic metric understanding
this site promises to remove myths and misconceptions
toward everyday use of decimal measurement in a
Metric America today.
A precision based concept of measuring
in harmony with life itself.

Just like an American dollar has 100 cents,
an American meter in length has 100 centimeters.
