Application specialization. Most people specialize their work. Using units specific to your work area is convenient and helps insight. For example energy is energy but if you are working with electrical energy at small levels electron-volt units are more convenient than Joules or Kilo-watt-hours. You would not want to measure height of people in units of miles.
The advantages of using storage units are many. First, you have the added convenience of having a place to store your extra stuff. It is great to be able to have your own extra storage place to keep your stuff. Everyone can use some extra room. Storage units can help to get you more space without having to sell your stuff. A unit can also provide you with quick access to your things even though they are not nearby. Because you pack your own stuff in the secure self storage unit, you should be able to find what you are looking for quickly.
The advantages of using different units of measurements are almost everyone will be able to understand at least one of them and you can describe many different events. The disadvantages are that people might get mixed up between different types of measurements.
If the same units and measurements were used around the world, we would have uniformity. If we use same units of measurements in an equation, it would be easier to find the answer and there would be lesser time computing. By using an obsolete measuring system, we made items which the world using metric tools can not use, and can not fix, and will not purchase. We have a system which is harder to learn so while our students are struggling with learning obsolete stuff, foreign students are learning useful material. Meanwhile, we are buying foreign products made to metric standards.
Disadvantages of using different units:
Confusion: some people might not be familiar with itMisunderstandings: if not labeled, people could assume they are different units
Delay when comparing to other units: how much is 65 mph in km/hr?
Advantages of using different units:
Magnitude more understandable: how big or small is it?
Appropriate size of precision: how big or small does it needs to be measured?
Better accuracy for what's being measured: can you measure time with a ruler?
The use of different units of measurement can create confusion. It also leads to time wasted in looking up charts or calculating conversions, and errors in measurement.
Advantages of the metric system. It is easier to calculate. It is easy to convert the units to each other.
Disadvantages of metric system. For people in some industrialized countries is unknown.
In the aviation industry, heights are always measured in feet, and distances in miles. This is to avoid confusion between these two dimensions. In older times, land surveyors used feet and decimal feet in measuring height, and chains and links for measuring length.
[But no longer is this supported in the metric system, for all modern instruments automatically differentiate between the two dimensions.]
However, it is vital that all members of a team building a complex structure use the same set of dimensions. For convenience, metric system meets these needs. Several rather embarrassing mistakes have occurred in the design of bridges, and even of rockets by ignoring the need for uniformity of measurement system.
one disadvantage is that we could get a measurement mixed up with another measurement.
quantities which are not mademade from major quantities
repeat using a different method
The answer would be different
The answer would be different
Advantages: All units in the Metric system are scalable by ten. For example, 1000 g = 1kg. Disadvantages: It would cost a lot to change to metrics. Also, many sports are linked to customary measurements (track, football, etc.)

advantages of using different units of measuremenys shopping at supermarket is we can know the price easily without cheating
It is no different.

If you have different units, converting to any common unit will help. Of course, using standard units, i.e. SI units, is better than any other arbitrary unit. Also, SI units for a consistent set of units; as a result, you can often omit proportionality factors from formulae.
Metric measurement is measurement made using units as defined under the metric system.
Equivalent measurement are measurements of the same characteristic which are made using two different units. For example, 20 deg C and 68 deg F are equivalent measurements.
wala
I want to know bookscrap about problems that may arise when using the unit of measurement is not the same .
It is a measurement of volume using units from the metric system.
Nope - pounds is an imperial measurement.
