Friends this is going to be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Easy!!!!!! Converting Metric Friends this is going to be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Easy!!!!!!

Here’s the gist of it……. KILO- HECTO- DEKA- UNIT Deci- Centi- Milli- To convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit (going to the left) divide by 10 for each step. (Move the decimal one time to the left for each box) Ex: 4 millimeters= 0.4 centimeters KILO- Kilograms (kg) Kiloliters (kl) Kilometers (km) HECTO- *Not commonly used Hectograms Hectoliters Hectometers DEKA- Deckagrams Deckaliters Deckameters   UNIT Grams (g) Liter (l) Meter (m) Deci- Decigrams Deciliters decimeters Centi- Centigrams Centiliters Centimeters Milli- Milligrams Milliliters millimeters To convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit (going to the right ) multiply by 10 for each box (Move the decimal one time to the right for each step. Ex: 25 kilograms = 25000 grams

Metric Recipe Look at the problem. Look at the unit that has a number. On the device put your pencil on that unit. Move to new unit, circle it counting jumps and noticing the direction of the jump. 3. Move decimal in original number the same # of spaces and in the same direction.

One last caution: Be careful NOT to count the spot you start from, where you put your pencil point. Only count the jumps!

Example #1: Look at the problem. 56 cm = _____ mm Look at the unit that has a number. 56 cm On the device put your pencil on that unit. k h d U d c m km hm dam m dm cm mm

Example #1: Move to new unit, counting jumps and noticing the direction of the jump! k h d U d c m km hm dam m dm cm mm One jump to the right!

Example #1: Move decimal in original number the same # of spaces and in the same direction. 56 cm = _____ mm 56.0. One jump to the right! Move decimal one jump to the right. Add a zero as a placeholder.

Example #1: 56 cm = _____ mm 56cm = 560 mm

Example #2: Look at the problem. 7.25 L = ____ kL Look at the unit that has a number. 7.25 L On the device put your pencil on that unit. k h d U d c m kl hl dal L dl cl ml

Example #2: Move to new unit, counting jumps and noticing the direction of the jump! k h d U d c m kl hl dal L dl cl ml Three jumps to the left!

.007.25 Move decimal to the left three jumps. Example #2: (3) Move decimal in original number the same # of spaces and in the same direction. 7.25 L = ____ kL .007.25 Three jumps to the left! Move decimal to the left three jumps. Add two zeros as placeholders.

Example #2: 7.25 L = ____ kL 7.25 L = .00725 kL

Examples #3-7: (3) 35 mm = ____ cm (4) 14,443 L = ____ kL (5) 0.00056 kg = ____ g (6)35.4 L = ____ mL (7)16 mm = ____ km
