[header] How to understand the metric system [title] Memorize the base units. [step] Unlike the imperial system, which uses many different units for the same quantity, the metric system uses a single base unit for each type of measurement. Each base unit is unique to that particular type of measurement.

Try to learn about the base units by studying their bases. [substeps] The base units are present the same number of units. [title] Determine what measurement system you need to compute. [step] Metric system is standardized in a technical manner based on the measurement system. [substeps] The base unit for measuring volume is the liter (l). The base unit for measuring length or distance is the meter (m). If the base unit uses a specialized unit for a unit of measurement, it has minimal registration in that unit. These bases usually rely on the unit's atomic composition and percentage of the atomic.
