In this lesson we will be dealing with how to convert units of measurements.
After this lesson learners will be expected to know the following:
Introduction
- To understand & be able to define the types of conversion we will be working with.
- Know how to convert units of measurements.
- Know the difference between metric & Imperial systems.

Types of units we will be dealing with
Conversion units 1
- metric systems
- imperial systems
- cooking conversions

- Milliliters (ml)
- Centiliters (cl)
- Liters (L)
- Kilogram (kg)
- Grams (g)
- Tons(ton)
What is Imperial systems
It is a measuring system in used in Britain to measure weight, length & Volume.
Conversion units 2
Types of imperial systems & how to convert them
- Yard (yd)
- Foot (ft)
- Mile (ml)
- inch (in)
- pound (lb)
- Ounces (oz)
Difference between metric & imperial systems
what is the difference between metric & imperial system
The difference is that metric is almost internationally while imperial is mostly used in Britain. They both measure length, weight & volume ,but they use different units to measure them.
what is cooking conversion

it's the measurement of hotness or coldness of a place or of a person. we convert temperature units using a specific formula.
conversion types of temperature & Formula used
- Celsius
- Fahrenheit
Conclusion
Review
- Types of conversions we use are metric systems, imperial systems, cooking conversions, temperature & time
- the difference between metric & imperial is that metric used internationally, while imperial is used mostly in Britain.
