METRIC CONVERSION FACTORS
WEIGHT
1 oz. = 28.35 g.
1 g. = 0.035 oz.
1 lb. = 453.59 g.
1 kilogram = 2.21 lb.

VOLUME
1 fluid oz. = 29.57 ml.
1 ml. = 0.034 oz.
1 c. = 236.6 ml.
1 qt. = 946 ml.
1 liter = 33.8 fl. oz.

LENGTH
1 inch = 25.4 millimeters
1 centimeter = 0.39 inch
1 meter = 39.4 inches

TEMPERATURE
To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius:
Subtract 32. Then multiply by 5/9.
Example: convert 140°F to Celsius.
140 - 32 = 108
108 x 5/9 = 60°C.

To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit:
Multiply by 9/5. Then add 32.
Example: convert 150°C to Fahrenheit.
150 x 9/5 = 270
270 + 32 = 302°F
