Yards? What the hell? You measure volume in yards now?
The cubic yard is common among contractors in the US. You buy concrete in yards
Yes and it’s as annoying and stupid as it sounds
A cubic yard is about 25% more than a cubic meter. And a ton is like 10% more than a metric ton.
Water volumes in reservoirs are measured in acre*feet. By comparison a cubic yard is pretty sensible. And for comparison if you know of any big lakes near you, a million acre feet is about 20% smaller than a cubic kilometer.
You got some special edition yards or something?
A cubic meter is 30% more than a cubic yard, meters are longer than yards.
A tonne (metric) is 1000kg, about 2200 pounds. A ton, often called a short ton, is 2000 pounds. A long ton is 2240 pounds. A long ton is 1.6% more than a metric ton.
Considering the insane mathematical conversions you people have to constantly do, I wonder why the USA isn’t full of mathematical geniuses?
Ah right, because scientists use metric.
