Abstract
This clip explains how to use both the unit cancellation and decimal methods to convert between the U.S. Customary and Metric Systems. "To convert between the two systems," the clip states, "we'll use a new equivalence: 1 inch equals 2.54 centimeters. From this equivalence, we can write two unit conversion factors...These are called 'transition factors'."
