You are strolling through the Eleventh Arrondissement in Paris and come upon a street market at the Place de la Bastille. Bright red cherries are in season; you decide to buy some. One scowling vendor in an apron is selling cherries for 37 francs per kilo (kilogram). As you hand over 37 francs for a paper bag filled with sweet cherries, you wonder how many ounces of cherries you're buying. Making the conversion from metric kilograms (kg) to English-system ounces (oz.) is easy.
