Why Converting Units will be One of the Most Useful Things You Will Ever Learn?


I remember learning how to convert units in Biology Class in high school. I've used that skill ever since that time and it has helped me solve many problems (and avoid lots of mistakes). The process of converting units is simple and powerful. The secret to consistently getting the right answers lies in always listing the units and taking the time to cancel the units as you proceed through the process. A few examples shown below in "Converting Units - Examples" which illustrates the process clearly. By learning to solve problems by setting up simple math problems, you will be amazed at how many complicated issues you can understand and problems you can solve. The problem solver with a good attitude advances, making more money and getting more responsibility. So take the time to learn how to set up simple math problems that help you convert units. Use this same technique every time: Always write the problem down. Always list the units (even if it seems simple to you) Always go through and cancel the units to make sure the answer you get is in the correct units This simple little technique can really help you.
