Показать описание
From the ProEdify TEAS prep course, this is part of the lesson on units of measure.

In this video, we explain how to convert one unit of measure to another (dimensional analysis / unit conversions). We go over conversion factors and how they are used. We also include two worked examples to showcase the techniques discussed.

What is a conversion factor? - 0:40
Rule of thumb - 0:58
Example 1 - 1:11
Example 2 - 1:54

Thanks! In some examples you didn't keep some space between a number and UM, e.g. 4m, 1cm. Could you please clarify this issue if we should keep some space like 4 m or 1 cm? Thanks one more again
