The SI system or metric system is the most commonly used system of measurement around and hence makes it more applicable around the world than the english SOM

Both systems are used to numerically describe measurement. The SI system is based on the number 10 as well as multiples and products of 10. This makes it much easier to use, and so it has been the accepted system in scientific and technical applications. The English system is more complicated as relationships between units of the same quantity aren’t uniform.
