To convert among units in the metric system, identify the unit that you have, the unit that you want to convert to, and then count the number of units to move between them.

La diferencia es que los dos países utilizan diferentes escalas de temperatura. En Estados Unidos, las temperaturas generalmente se miden usando la escala Fahrenheit, mientras que la mayoría de los países que uti

What’s going on here? The difference is that the two countries use different temperature scales. In the U.S, temperatures are usually measured using the Fahrenheit scale, while most countries that use the metric system use the Celsius scale to record temperatures.
