Uses Of The Metric System The metric system has become the global language of measurement.To measure length you use meters. To measure capacity you use liters. To measure mass and weight you use grams.

What is Length and Volume? Length is a measurement of distance or dimension. The two main systems of measurement metric and English system. The metric system is based on ten. Always read in a direct line, not at an angle. Measuring volume is length times width times height. How much is in whatever you are measuring is volume
