The United States uses both an English-based system and the SI system for making measurements, but its official standard is still the English-based system. State whether or not you think the United States should change its measurement standard, and explain your reasoning. If the United States did make this switch, what are some ways that you would deal with this adjustment?

United States should change it's measurement system to S.I. unit system instead of English based system. It is because, most of the countries in the world uses that, so it would be easy for our Scientists to deal with them.

If United states did make this switch, then we would use only S.I. units like kilogram for weight instead of pounds, meter for length instead of foot, so it would be easy in communication with rest of the world

Hope this helps!
