You are mixing some concrete for a home project, and you've calculated according to the directions that you need six gallons of water for your mix. But your bucket isn’t calibrated, so you don't know how much it holds. On the other hand, you just finished a two-liter bottle of soda.

You've been watching a highway construction project that you pass on the way home from work. ‘They've been moving an incredible amount of dirt. You call up the information line, and find out that, when all eighty trucks are running with full crews, the project moves about nine thousand cubic yards of dirt cach day. You think back to the allegedly "good old days" when work was all done manually, and wonder how many wheelbarrows full of dirt would be equivalent to nine thousand cubic yards of dirt. You go to your garage, and see that your wheelbarrow is labeled on its side as holding six cubic feet. Since people wouldn't want to overfill their barrows, spill their load, and then have to start over, you assume that this stated capacity is a good measurement. How many wheelbarrow loads would it take to move the same amount of dirt as those eighty trucks? CONVERSIONS?
