Are you converting from a smaller to larger unit or larger to smaller unit converting millimeters to meter?
You convert to a larger unit. Smaller to larger. Metre is 1000 times larger than a millimetre
Are you converting from a smaller unit to a larger unit or from a larger unit to a smaller unit?
The answer to that one is going to depend on two things:-- what unit you are converting from-- what unit you are converting to
How do you convert 832 mg to grams?

When converting a smaller metric unit to a larger metric unit do you move the decimal to the left?
Yes. For example, 100 grams = 0.1 kilograms
How do you determine which decimal is larger?

12 cm converted to m?
Since there are 100 cm in 1 m, you must divide 12 by 100. This gives you 12/100, which can be reduced to 3/25, or 0.12 in decimal form. Whenever you are converting in metric units, you only have to move the decimal based on the different measurements. In this case, a meter is 100 centimeters, so the decimal is moved two places over. Which direction you move it depends on which way you are converting. Converting from a smaller size to a bigger one requires you to move the decimal to the left, and converting from a larger size to a smaller one requires you to move the decimal to the right, adding zeroes as necessary.
Must a unit be divided by multiples of ten when converting from a larger unit to a smaller unit?

How do you calculate decimal range of temperature?
