- 1Converting from one metric unit to anotherThe most common metric conversions are between mm, cm, m and km
1cm = 10mm
1m = 100cm = 1000mm
1km = 1000m = 100000cm = 1000000mm - 2Kilo means 1000, so 1km = 1000m centi mean 1/100th, so 1 cm = 1/100th m milli means 1/1000th, so 1mm = 1/1000th mConverting units of mass and capacity
1kg = 1000g
1l = 100cl
1g = 1000mg - 3Example: A packet of biscuits weighs 150g. Find the weight of 12 packets of biscuits: 1. in g 2. in kg1. 12 x 150 = 1800, so 12 packets of biscuits weighs 1800g
2. The answer is 1.8kg
Remember that 1kg = 1000g
To convert from g to kg, we divide by 1000
