About this unit converter

A single converter for the measurements you reach for most: length (millimetres to miles), mass (milligrams to stone), temperature (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin), volume (millilitres to US gallons), area (square centimetres to acres), and speed (m/s to knots). Every conversion uses exact internationally-defined factors — for example, one inch is exactly 0.0254 metres and one pound is exactly 0.45359237 kilograms.

How to use it

Common conversions

Are these US or imperial gallons?

Volume uses US customary units (US gallon, quart, pint, cup, fluid ounce). A US gallon is 3.785 litres; the UK imperial gallon is larger at 4.546 litres.

Why does temperature work differently?

Temperature scales have different zero points, so they can't be converted with a single multiply. Each value is first converted to Celsius, then to the target scale using the standard formulas.

How precise are the results?

Conversions are computed with full double-precision factors and shown to a sensible number of significant figures. Very large or very small results switch to scientific notation.
