Imagine that you are a member of your state’s highway board. In order to comply with a bill passed in the state legislature, all your state’s highway signs must show distances in miles and kilometers. Two plans are before you. One plan suggests adding metric equivalents to all highway signs as follows: Dallas 300 mi (483 km). Proponents of the other plan say that the first plan makes the metric system seem more cumbersome, so they propose replacing the old signs with new signs every 50 km as follows: Dallas 300 km (186 mi). In your opinion, which plan should be followed.
