Is there a good website with tutorials on units of the imperial system?
I’ve learnt in metric, but I’m one day planning on moving to America. I’d like to learn to intuitively use imperial units without having to always convert from metric (like pounds, inches, degrees Fahrenheit). I thought it would help if I could find some elementary school math tutorials but so far I haven’t managed to find anything useful. Any ideas?
I can’t find any site that’s an ‘intuitive’ approach.
Just know that 32 degrees F is freezing, a hot day is 80 to 100 degrees, boiling water is 212 degrees .
A gallon is a milk jug, 1/4 of that is a quart, 1/2 of a quart is a pint.
A foot is about a third of a meter, or commonly your elbow to your fingertip.
A football field is 100 yards from end zone to end zone.
A mile, well, you’ll see that while driving.
When you move to America, these things will make more sense. It’s like learning a new language, you just have to be around it.
By the way, it’s ‘learned’ not learnt.
Hope this gets you started!!
