Page 2: Converting units

We use different metric units to measure :-

We can use our knowledge of multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 or 1000 to change or convert measurements in one unit to measurements in

another unit.

Page 3: Converting units

We are going to use our knowledge We are going to use our knowledge about multiplying and dividing by 100 about multiplying and dividing by 100 to convert centimeters to meters and to convert centimeters to meters and

to convert meters to centimeters.to convert meters to centimeters.
