Abstract
This clip summarizes measurement and unit conversion. The clip explains methods for converting from one unit to another, including "...the method in which we always multiply. This method is called 'unit cancellation.' In unit cancellation, we use a unit equivalence to write unit conversion factors," the clip states. These factors are always written as fractions, where the amount in the numerator is equal to the amount in the denominator. The clip concludes by noting that, "...sometimes we have to use two unit conversion factors."
