METRIC PRACTICE: LENGTH Miss Fogg Fall 2015

What is the base unit of measurement for legnth? Meters

Which unit is the smallest? meter kilometer millimeter Kilometer >Meter> Millimeter

What is the abbreviation for… Kilometer = km

What is the abbreviation for… Meter = m

What is the abbreviation for… Millimeter = mm

How many meters make up a kilometer? m = 1km

Convert 55 m to km km hm dam m dm cm mm  55m = 0.055km Move 3 places to the left to get from m to km

Convert 780 m to km km hm dam m dm cm mm  780m = 0.780km Move 3 places to the left to get from m to km

Convert 23,000 m to km km hm dam m dm cm mm  23,000m = 23km Move 3 places to the left to get from m to km

Convert 88 km to m km hm dam m dm cm mm  88km = 88,000m Move 3 places to the right to get from km to m

Convert 9 km to m km hm dam m dm cm mm  9km = 9,000m Move 3 places to the right to get from km to m

Convert 0.23 km to m km hm dam m dm cm mm  0.23km = 230m Move 3 places to the right to get from km to m

Convert: 6789m into kilometers km

Convert: 7m into kilometers km

Convert: 23m into kilometers km

Convert: 14km into meters 14000m

Convert: 2.7km into meters 2700m

Convert: 0.778km into meters 778m
