For example,
60 seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 hour
24 hours = 1 day
7 day = 1 week
29-31 days = Month (approx.)
365/366 days = year
It’s like for the imperial measurement of distance, where 1 mile = 5280 feet…
Edit: just to clarify, I’m more or less keen towards any consistent, decimal-based measurement systems like base-10 or base-12.
True. But even within those differing imperial measurements, 12inches defined a foot, 3feet to a yard etc. But I agree there wasn’t a standard imperial unit of length until recently. Anyway, Metric is fine, but I dislike when people criticize other units of measurement just because they have units divisions that aren’t base 10 as if its weird or “shit” that people want to divide things in ways that aren’t halves or fifths.
