Some things to remember when converting units. To convert from a larger to smaller metric unit you always multiply moving the decimal place to the right To convert from a smaller to larger unit you always divide moving the decimal place to the left
For every step upward (or to the left) For every step upward (or to the left) on the chart you are dividing by 10 or on the chart you are dividing by 10 or moving the decimal one place to the moving the decimal one place to the left.. left..
For every step downward on the chart For every step downward on the chart you are multiplying by 10 or moving the you are multiplying by 10 or moving the decimal one place to the right.. decimal one place to the right.. Example: Example: To convert 2 kilometers to To convert 2 kilometers to meters you move 3 steps down meters you move 3 steps down on the chart so you move the on the chart so you move the decimal 3 places to the right decimal 3 places to the right 2 kilometers = 2000 meters 2 kilometers = 2000 meters
Example: Example: To convert 345 milligrams to To convert 345 milligrams to grams you move 3 steps up on grams you move 3 steps up on the chart so you move the the chart so you move the decimal 3 places to the left decimal 3 places to the left 345 mg = .345 g 345 mg = .345 g
