Question 1

How accurate are the unit conversions?

Accepted Answer

Our unit converter uses precise conversion factors based on international standards. Results are calculated to high precision and are suitable for most practical applications including scientific and engineering calculations.

Question 2

What types of units can I convert?

Accepted Answer

You can convert between units in six main categories: Length (meters, feet, inches, miles, etc.), Weight (kilograms, pounds, ounces, etc.), Temperature (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin), Area (square meters, acres, hectares, etc.), Volume (liters, gallons, cups, etc.), and Energy (joules, calories, BTU, kWh, etc.).

Question 3

How do temperature conversions work?

Accepted Answer

Temperature conversions use specific formulas because temperature scales have different starting points. Celsius to Fahrenheit: (°C × 9/5) + 32. Fahrenheit to Celsius: (°F - 32) × 5/9. Kelvin conversions: K = °C + 273.15.

Question 4

Can I convert between metric and imperial units?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our converter supports conversions between metric (SI) and imperial (US/UK) units. For example, you can convert meters to feet, kilograms to pounds, liters to gallons, and many other combinations.

Question 5

Is there a limit to the numbers I can convert?

Accepted Answer

The converter can handle a wide range of values, from very small decimal numbers to very large numbers. For extremely large or small values, consider using scientific notation for better accuracy.

Question 6

How do I use the conversion history?

Accepted Answer

Your recent conversions are automatically saved in the history section. Click on any previous conversion to quickly reuse those settings. The history is stored locally in your browser and includes your last 10 conversions.

Question 7

What should I do if I get unexpected results?

Accepted Answer

First, verify that you've selected the correct units and category. Check that your input value is valid. For temperature conversions, ensure you understand the scale differences. If problems persist, try refreshing the page.

Question 8

Can I use this for cooking measurements?
