For all categories except temperature, conversions use a base-unit ratio system. Every unit is defined as a fixed multiplier of a chosen base unit (e.g. 1 kilometre = 1000 metres). To convert from unit A to unit B:
Temperature is handled separately because its scales use different zero points. The converter always converts via Celsius as an intermediate step, applying the exact algebraic formulas (e.g. °F = °C × 9/5 + 32).
All floating-point results are rounded to 8 significant figures using symmetric rounding to eliminate trailing noise while preserving precision for scientific use.

Over 100 units across 11 measurement categories — from everyday conversions like km to miles, to scientific ones like pascals to atmospheres.
Yes. All conversion factors are stored at full IEEE 754 double-precision floating-point accuracy and results are rounded to 8 significant figures, which exceeds the precision needed for most engineering and scientific calculations.
Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Rankine do not share the same zero point, so simple multiplication doesn't work. Each conversion uses the exact algebraic formula (e.g. °F = °C × 9⁄5 + 32) rather than a ratio.
One average month is defined as 2,629,800 seconds (365.25 days ÷ 12), which accounts for the unequal lengths of calendar months and leap years.
Binary (IEC standard) — 1 KB = 1,024 bytes, 1 MB = 1,048,576 bytes. This matches how operating systems report file sizes.
The converter handles one unit at a time. To convert 5 ft 10 in, first convert 5 ft to inches (60 in), add 10 to get 70 in, then convert 70 in to your target unit.
Convert length and distance between 20 units — mm, cm, m, km, inches, feet, yards, miles, nautical miles, fathoms, light-years, astronomical units, and more. Instant results with formula, conversion factor, and full reference table.
Convert weight and mass between 17 units — micrograms, milligrams, grams, kilograms, metric tonnes, ounces, pounds, stones, short tons, long tons, carats, troy ounces, and more. Instant results with formula and full reference table.
Convert temperature between 8 scales — Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, Rankine, Réaumur, Rømer, Newton, and Delisle. Exact algebraic formulas, live results, and a full reference table for every scale.
