The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...
The blue rectangle is of A4 size. Every stone's weight is individually recorded, and their masses are illustrated in the attached graph. The horizontal axis represents the individual stone mass, while the vertical axis denotes the cumulative mass as a percentage of the entire sample's mass. At the 50% mark, the M 50 value is discerned to be ...
