King Henry died by drinking chocolate milk is a good way to remember the
metric units. Like PEMDAS was a good acronym to memorizing the order operations .
All scientist use the Metric units.
Since scientists everywhere use the same measurements, it helps eliminate
confusion when scientists from different
places share their data.
The metric system is based on tens, just like our decimal system.
So to convert and change between units in the metric system,
you just have to move the decimal point.
To convert to a smaller unit, move the decimal point to the right. To convert to a
larger unit, move the decimal to the left.
