Final Project Presentation

This tool can be used to easily convert US measures of:

• Miles
• Inches
• Pounds
• Gallons

Into metric measures:

• Kilometers
• Centimeters
• Kilograms
• Liters

The method of inputs are as follows:

• Miles - slider, range: 1 - 1000
• Inches - numeric, range: 1 - 100
• Pounds - slider, range: 1 - 500
• Gallons - slider, range: 1 - 50

The forumlas used for the conversion are:

• km <- miles/0.62137
• cm <- inches*2.54
• kg <- pounds/0.45359237
• li <- gallons*3.785411784

miles = 50; km <- miles/0.62137; show(km)

[1] 80.46735

inches = 24; cm <- inches*2.54; show(cm)

[1] 60.96

pounds = 190; kg <- pounds/0.45359237; show(kg)

[1] 418.8783

gallons = 9; li <- gallons*3.785411784; show(li)

[1] 34.06871

Advantages of this tool:

• Simple input mechanisms
• Efficient conversion from US measures to their metric equvalents
• Web availability of tool increases accessibility and usability
