Chart is a term used to define documents which represent facts and information using graphs, lines, symbols, figures, and images. Charts simply summarize or elaborate information using images and visuals. Most people prefer to use charts in representing various things, as in food charts.
There are various types of charts, and the most commonly used ones include pie charts, bar charts, line charts, and flow charts among others. Since most people learn easily through the aid of visual aids, charts are widely used in schools, and even in the business world.
A metric conversion chart, as its name suggests, is a type of chart representing information on the conversion of different metric units. Metric unit conversion charts usually show how to convert certain metric units or measurements to another.
They usually contain figures representing the metric units, and words indicating the units of figures. Common metric units we are familiar of are meters, centimeters, kilograms, grams, kilometers, miles, etc.
Generally, metric conversion charts indicate instructions on how to convert a specific measurement to another. For example, a metric conversion chart can indicate the conversion of grams to kilograms (e.g. 1000 g = 1 kg).
Metric conversion charts are typically used in educational institutions, usually written in a way that can be easily understood by students, making it easier for teachers to discuss the process of conversion.
Teachers may include metric conversion charts during written exams on metric conversion to help students convert different metric units to another.
Some teachers require students to study and memorize contents of metric conversion charts during or before their lessons. Metric conversions charts may contain information from the simplest metric unit conversion to the most complicated ones.
