2.1. Measure length weight volume
Rewrite the whole recipe and make use of metric units.
Imperial → metric 1 mile → 1,609 km 1 ounce → 28,35 g 1 pound (16 ounces) → 453,59 g 1 US gallon (8 pints) → 3,785 ℓ
2.2.
Convert 335 ºF to ºC.
Metric → imperial 1 km → 0,621 miles 1 g → 0,035 ounces 1 kg → 2,205 pounds 1 ℓ = 0,264 US gallons
