It is possible to perform all of the conversions in a single equation as long as all of the appropriate
conversion factors are included.

Example:
A Swedish firm is producing a valve that is to be used by an American supplier. The Swedish firm
uses the MKS system for all machining. To conform with the MKS system, how will the following
measurements be listed?
Valve stem
57.20 in.
Valve inlet and outlet
I.D.
22.00 in.
O.D.
27.50 in.
Solution:
Valve stem
57.20 in. x 0.0254 m/in. = 1.453 m
Valve inlet and outlet
I.D. 22.00 x 0.0254 = 0.559 m
O.D. 27.50 x 0.0254 = 0.699 m
