In 1975 Canada went from imperial to metric and slide rules like this were a popular way to figure out the conversion. Fun fact – April 1, 1975 was the first day weather reports gave temperatures in degrees Celsius, rather than Fahrenheit. This chart converts measurements used for:
-Volume – cubic inches to cubic cm, cubic yards/feet to cubic metres
-liquids – gallons to litres, ounces to cubic cm
-Weight – ounces to grams, Kg to pounds
-Length – inches to cm/mm, yards/feet to meters, miles to km
-Area – square inches to square cm, square yards/feet to square metres, square miles to square km
