• To convert from a larger unit to a smaller
unit, multiply by 1000 or move the decimal
point three places to the right
• To convert from a smaller unit to a larger
unit, divide by 1000 or move the decimal
point three places to the left
Convert 0.25 mg into micrograms0.25 × 1000 or move decimal point three places
to the RIGHT= 250 micrograms
Convert 600 micrograms to mg600 ÷ 1000 or move the decimal point
three places to the LEFT= 0.6 mg
