Dusk Wrote:My main issue with the metric system is how complicated dividing by simple numbers like 2,3 and 4 become. Want to split an inch into sixteenths? Sure. We call it 1/16 inches. Want to split a cm into sixteenths? That's 6.25*10^-4 meters. Use fractions please. huh? splitting an inch into sixteenths is 1/16 inch. splitting a cm into sixteenths is 1/16 cm. Why would you not use fractions? |
