  1. Kilometers

    Heptameters

    Decameters

    meters (Unit)

    Decimeters

    Centimeters

    Millimeters

    remember this saying to easily convert meters.

    multiply by 10 when going left to right. divide by 10 when going right to left


  2. from cm to m multiply 100. from milimeter to meter multiply 1000. to remember, c comes before m, and 100 comes before 1000.

  3. times by 10.

  4. meter times 100 equals centimeter     century is 100 years

    meter times 1000 equal millimeter      millenium is 1000 years

  5. 1m=100cm=1000mm

    1mm= 0.1cm=0.001m



  6. da (deca) = x10

    k (kilo) = x1000

    M (Mega) = x1000000

    G (Giga) = x1000000000

    T (Tera) = x1000000000000

    d (deci) = /10

    c (cent) = /100

    m (milli) = /1000

    µ (micro) = /1000000

    n (nano) = /1000000000

    p (pico) = /1000000000000

    (kilo)   (hecto) (Deco)  (unit)   (deci)  (centi)  (mili)

    then u put a dot about CM and count how many spaces it is to the METERS. and then you just move the decimal point that many spaces, to either the right or left depending on which way you had to drag your pencil.

    sry if its confusing..

  8. centimeter is 1/100 of a meter, so divide by 100 to get number of meters from number of centimeters (e.g. 1000 cm / 100 = 10 meters)

    millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter (e.g. 10000 mm / 1000 = 10 meters)
