Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are the conversions?
Our converter uses precise conversion factors and maintains accuracy up to 8 decimal places. That's more precise than your kitchen scale and probably more accurate than you'll ever need - unless you're NASA, in which case, hello NASA!
Why do some conversions show formulas?
We display the conversion formulas to help you understand the math behind each conversion. It's especially useful for temperature conversions where it's not just simple multiplication. Think of it as showing our work, just like your math teacher always wanted!
Can I use this for cooking measurements?
Absolutely! Whether you're converting cups to milliliters or ounces to grams, our volume and weight conversions have got your culinary adventures covered. Just remember that for some ingredients, volume-to-weight conversions can vary based on density.
Does this work offline?
Yes! Once the page loads, all conversions happen right in your browser. So even if your internet connection decides to take a coffee break, you can keep converting to your heart's content.
Why are there so many different units for the same thing?
Ah, the eternal question! Different cultures and industries developed their own measurement systems over time. While the metric system tries to bring order to this chaos, we still need to deal with various units in our daily lives. That's why we're here to help!
What's the difference between Imperial and US units?
Despite sharing names, some Imperial and US units actually differ in size. For example, a US gallon is about 3.79 liters, while an Imperial gallon is about 4.55 liters. Don't worry though - our converter specifies which system it's using to avoid any confusion!
