To convert imperial units to metric units in MATLAB, you can use multiplication and division with conversion factors. Here are some examples for commonly used units:

main.m
% Convert inches to centimeters
inches = 12;
centimeters = inches * 2.54;

% Convert pounds to kilograms
pounds = 150;

Alternatively, you can use the convertUnits function from the MATLAB File Exchange to convert between different systems of units. This function supports a wide range of units for length, mass, temperature, pressure, and more.

main.m
% Convert feet to meters
feet = 6;
meters = convertUnits(feet, 'ft', 'm');

% Convert ounces to grams
ounces = 8;
grams = convertUnits(ounces, 'oz', 'g');

% Convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour
mph = 45;
kph = convertUnits(mph, 'mi/h', 'km/h');
