Decimal System For Metric Conversions: When changing units, move the decimal point in the same direction that you move on the chart.

The Metric Decimal System To complete from a larger unit to a smaller unit, multiply by the appropriate power of 10. (move decimal point to the right) To convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit, use division by the appropriate power of 10. (move the decimal point to the left)

Complete. 2 m = _____ mm 10 m = ____ cm 3500 mm = _____ m
