I wonder how many Americans know that their units are not the same as imperial units? 1 gallon US = 3,790 cm³ 1 gallon imperial = 4,546 cm³ 1 ton US = 2000 lbs = 907.18 kg 1 ton imperial = 2240 lbs = 1,016.05 kg 1 pint US = 473.18 mL 1 pint imperial = 568.26 mL Measures of length (inches, feet, miles) are the same today, but only after the US changed their definitions in 1958 to match the imperial system.
