Example: Convert 5 km to mm
5 km = 5 x 106 mm = mm (Left to Right) multiply 106 = 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 3 Gm Mm km hm da m (meter) dm cm mm µm nm Count Boxes = 6 = 3 = 1
4
Example: Convert 675 cm to m
(Right to Left) divide 102 = 100 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 3 Gm Mm km hm da m (meter) dm cm mm µm nm Count Boxes = 2 675 cm = 675 / 102 m = 6.75 m
5
Example: Convert 675 km to µm
(Left to Right) multiply 109 = 1000,000,000 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 3 Gm Mm km hm da m (meter) dm cm mm µm nm Count Boxes = 6+3=9 675 km = 675 x 109 µm

Imperial Conversion (Length)
Memorize Following Basic Conversion 1 nmi = 1.15 mi 1 mi = 1760 yd 1 yd = 3 ft 1 ft = 12 inch 1 inch = 25.4 mm (Left to Right) multiply 1.15 1760 3 12 25.4 nmi mi yd ft inch mm (Right to Left) divide
7
Example: Convert 5.2 mi to inch
5.2 mi = 5.2 x 1760 x 3 x 12 = inch (Left to Right) multiply 1.15 1760 3 12 25.4 nmi mi yd ft inch mm
8
Example: Convert 86752 mm to mi
(Right to Left) divide 1.15 1760 3 12 25.4 nmi mi yd ft inch mm
9
Example: Convert 80.6 mi to km
Step1: Convert 80.6 mi to mm 80.6 mi = 80.6 x 1760 x 3 x 12 x 25.4 = mm (Left to Right) multiply 1.15 1760 3 12 25.4 nmi mi yd ft inch mm
10
Example: Convert 80.6 mi to km
Step2: Convert mm to km 80.6 mi = mm = / = km (Right to Left) divide 106 = 3 3 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 3 Gm Mm km hm da m (meter) dm cm mm µm nm Count Boxes = 6
