Answer:

In antiquity, systems of measurement were defined locally: the different units might be defined independently according to the length of a king's thumb or the size of his foot, the length of stride, the length of arm, or maybe the weight of water in a keg of specific size, perhaps itself defined in hands and knuckles.

Systems of Measurement: there are two main systems of measurement in the world: the Metric (or decimal) system and the US standard system. ... The US Standard system uses units that have no predictable relationship to each other.

Explanation:

For example, there are 2 cups in a pint, but 4 quarts in a gallon.

How does Maniac keep John McNab from fighting with Mars Bar?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

When a fight nearly broke out between John McNab and Mars Bar, Maniac stepped in and simply led Mars Bar away from the McNab home.

Explanation:

Maniac was instrumental in bringing Mars Bar to the McNab's home for the birthday party. But Mars Bar was uncomfortable being in a white home and the McNab family were uncomfortable having a black in their home. When the McNab boys played the game "blacks and whites", it made Mars Bar very uncomfortable.

Maniac's purpose of inviting Mars Bar to the birthday party was to teach Mars Bar about the white people and to teach the white about the blacks. But it wasn't actualized.

"Maniac Magee" is a story by American author Jerry Spinelli. The story's themes center on racism and inequality. It tells the story of an orphan boy who was looking for an abode and a home in the fictional town of Two Mills. Two Mills is a town which was torn between the East and West, blacks and whites.
