Common mistakes to avoid

1. Confusing similar units: statute miles (1.609 km) and nautical miles (1.852 km) are different. Fluid ounces and weight ounces also differ.
2. Different measurement systems: the US imperial and British imperial systems have some different units (e.g. US gallon ≠ UK gallon).
3. Decimal precision: for scientific conversions, verify the number of decimal places. Excessive rounding can cause significant errors.
4. Non-linear temperature: Celsius-Fahrenheit conversion is not a simple multiplication. Use the correct formula or the dedicated tool.
