Everyday Conversions

Cooking and Baking

Many European and Australian recipes use grams and milliliters for precise baking. If your kitchen only has imperial measuring cups and scales, converting grams to ounces or milliliters to fluid ounces is essential for a successful bake.

Travel and Driving

If you are used to reading speeds in miles per hour (MPH) and distances in miles, driving in a country that uses kilometers (km) can be confusing.

Rule of thumb: 1 kilometer0.62 miles1 \text{ kilometer} \approx 0.62 \text{ miles}.

Temperature

Understanding the weather or setting an oven requires knowing the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit. The conversion formula is:

F=(C×95)+32^\circ F = (^\circ C \times \frac{9}{5}) + 32

For a quick mental estimate when traveling: double the Celsius temperature and add 30!
