Measurement and Conversion
Measurements are determined in many different ways
depending on the items to be measured and the
system used. As such, it is important to
have equipment for liquid and dry volume measurers for both U.S. and metric,
as well as a variety of scales for accurate measurement by weight. Thermometers should display
both Fahrenheit and
Centigrade temperatures.
