I am constantly asked how to convert imperial to metric and vice versa and I have to admit while I grew up with the imperial system I am now totally metrically minded. These requests finally sent me on a quest to find easy equations on how to convert them, this was not an easy a task as I thought it would be. However finally I managed to come up with the formulae which you see below.
