MEASUREMENT CONVERSIONS: OUNCES TO GRAMS

INTRODUCTION

People do not realize that most countries use The Metric System as their measurement tool. This causes a problem with communication between the U.S. and other countries because the U.S. uses The Standard American Engineering System. With the use of facts like 1 ounce = 28.35 grams, all countries can communicate about ideas like recipes or innovative projects that could change the world.

WHAT IS THE MAIN CONVERSION?

THE CONVERSION RATIO METHOD

One of the easiest ways to convert ounces to grams and grams to ounces is the conversion ratio.

The conversion ratio keeps the units and weights organized. In addition, the conversion ratio method can be used in ANY conversion.
