  6. Because when you convert metric you can go straight to what you need, where as when your convert english you have to do more steps to get to what you need.

  7. There are more steps involved in some of the problems and when u are converting its not all based on ten like the metric system.

  8. I think that it is harder because, we have to look it up on that other paper, and sometimes we have to think a little harder than metric conv. we r 9th graders... we dont like to think

  11. Some problems can have more than one convertion. You may have to convert one to a different unit.

  13. because the american is way different then everyone else and its kinda hard to learn because to find out how many ounces goes in to something you may have to look at 4 other things before you even find out what it is.

  16. there is many units in english and not many in si so it can be confusing.
