I found this information inside this book. I liked it because it was so interesting and funny, that I decided to share it.

"A NOTE TO READER:
Please forgive the inconvenience of converting measurements from what most Americans are used to. But in 1991 the United States finally became the last nation on earth to convert to the metric system.
It's easy:
1 kilometer roughly equals a little more than 1/2 mile.
1 meter is slightly more than 1 yard, about 39 inches.
2 centimeters to the inch.
And there you have it."
