What are some advantages of the metric system over the British system?

Solution

The main advantage of metric system is derived from the fact that it is based on a decimal system, which is also the system we use for counting and all our calculations in normal life. This makes it easier for common people to make calculations they are required to make in their daily transactions such as buying selling and other calculations involving quantities and costs. This is the only reason why many countries have officially changed over to the metric system from other prevalent systems.

Once metric system has been made an internationally accepted standard system it also offers the advantage of being compatible with measurement and currency system followed in many different countries.

By the way it is worthwhile noting that British System is no longer the standard measurement system used in Britain.
