Thread Name: BS: US pints
Subject: RE: BS: US pints
Lost me and I teach numeracy
We are now in the metric system except for pints of beer and milk any others
Double running on litres 1 ltr = 1.75 pints approx
8 Uk pints to the gallon
Inches 2.54cms = 1inch, 1 foot = 31cms approx (1ft = 12")
metres; 1 metre = 39 inch approx, 1 yard = 36 inches
kilometre 1 km = 0.62 of 1 mile
1 kilogramme/kg/kilo = 2.205 llbs
So which is larger half a litre or a US pint?
Dont ask me I lost the plot!!
