The metric system of measurement is the modern global system of measurement. It consists of a base unit for length, capacity, and mass. The metric system is the world’s most widely used system of measurement.

Table1:

Mass	Kilogram	kg
Length	Metre	m
Capacity	Litre	l

Mass:

The mass is measured in unit called kilograms. There are smaller units of mass measurements called grams and milligram

1kg = 1000 g

1g = 1000 mg

Length:

The standard unit of length is metre in metric system.

1km = 1000 m

1m = 100 cm

1cm = 10 mm

Capacity:

The volume of a liquid is measured in units of capacity. The water in a bucket is measured in this unit.

1l = 1000 ml
