1 Metric Prefixes and Conversions
1 Gigameter (Gm) = 1, 000, 000, 000 meters 1 Megameter (Mm) = 1, 000, 000 meters 1 Kilometer (Km) = 1, 000 meters 1 Decameter (Dm) = 10 meters 1 meter (m) 10 decimeters (dm) = 1 meter 100 centimeters (cm) = 1 meter 1000 millimeters (mm) = 1 meter 1,000,000 micrometers (m) =1 meter 1,000,000,000 nanometers (nm) = 1 meter 1,000,000,000,000 picometers (pm) = 1 meter Metric Prefixes and Conversions Standard units for distance, volume, and mass: Distance = meters (m) Volume = liters (L) Mass = grams (g) The chart shows meters, as an example, but meters (m) can be replaced with liters (L) or grams (g). 1 Gigameter (Gm) = 1, 000, 000, 000 meters 1 Megameter (Mm) = 1, 000, 000 meters 1 Kilometer (Km) = 1, 000 meters 1 Decameter (Dm) = 10 meters 1 meter (m) 10 decimeters (dm) = 1 meter 100 centimeters (cm) = 1 meter 1000 millimeters (mm) = 1 meter 1,000,000 micrometers (m) =1 meter 1,000,000,000 nanometers (nm) = 1 meter 1,000,000,000,000 picometers (pm) = 1 meter Metric Prefixes and Conversions Standard units for distance, volume, and mass: Distance = meters (m) Volume = liters (L) Mass = grams (g) The chart shows meters, as an example, but meters (m) can be replaced with liters (L) or grams (g). 1 Gigameter (Gm) = 1, 000, 000, 000 meters 1 Megameter (Mm) = 1, 000, 000 meters 1 Kilometer (Km) = 1, 000 meters 1 Decameter (Dm) = 10 meters 1 meter (m) 10 decimeters (dm) = 1 meter 100 centimeters (cm) = 1 meter 1000 millimeters (mm) = 1 meter 1,000,000 micrometers (m) =1 meter 1,000,000,000 nanometers (nm) = 1 meter 1,000,000,000,000 picometers (pm) = 1 meter Metric Prefixes and Conversions Standard units for distance, volume, and mass: Distance = meters (m) Volume = liters (L) Mass = grams (g) The chart shows meters, as an example, but meters (m) can be replaced with liters (L) or grams (g). 1 Gigameter (Gm) = 1, 000, 000, 000 meters 1 Megameter (Mm) = 1, 000, 000 meters 1 Kilometer (Km) = 1, 000 meters 1 Decameter (Dm) = 10 meters 1 meter (m) 10 decimeters (dm) = 1 meter 100 centimeters (cm) = 1 meter 1000 millimeters (mm) = 1 meter 1,000,000 micrometers (m) =1 meter 1,000,000,000 nanometers (nm) = 1 meter 1,000,000,000,000 picometers (pm) = 1 meter Metric Prefixes and Conversions Standard units for distance, volume, and mass: Distance = meters (m) Volume = liters (L) Mass = grams (g) The chart shows meters, as an example, but meters (m) can be replaced with liters (L) or grams (g).
