THE RATIO INMEASUREMENT BETWEEN THE USA AND UZBEKISTAN
Keywords:
Measurement system, imperial system, metric system, unit conversion, USA, Uzbekistan, trade, engineering, standardization.Abstract
Measurement systems vary worldwide, impacting communication, trade, engineering, and scientific research. The United States primarily follows the imperial system, while Uzbekistan adheres to the metric system, which is more widely used internationally. These differences affect various aspects of life, including construction, transportation, education, and daily commerce. The lack of standardization between these systems requires frequent conversions, influencing business transactions and technological development. Understanding the key distinctions between the two systems is crucial for effective collaboration in global industries. This article explores the historical origins, practical implications, and conversion challenges between the USA and Uzbekistan’s measurement systems.
