Final answer:

The adoption of the International System of Units (SI) in Panama had advantages and disadvantages for the citizens, impacting how items were purchased.


Explanation:

Adopting the International System of Units (SI) brought both advantages and disadvantages to the people of Panama.

  1. Advantages: Standardization with the rest of the world facilitates international trade, making conversions simpler and more accurate.
  2. Disadvantages: Initial confusion and adjustments may have occurred as the traditional units were replaced by the metric system.

The transition led to purchasing gasoline in liters, meat in kilograms, and fabric in meters, aligning Panama with global measurement standards.
