You must multiply millimeter figures by 100 to change to decimeters.
There are 10 millimeters to every 1 centimeter. So, there would be more millimeters in a given length than centimeters. To increase a number you would multiply.
Example. (meters to millimeters) There are more millimeters in a metre(1000 to be precise) Therefore you multiply by 1000 to get from metres to millimeters That is wrong we don't want an example You have multiply because the larger unit has to broken down into plenty of smaller measurements or units. When you do that the number is multiplied into many smaller units.
There are 1000mm per meter. So, mm/1000 = meters
1m is = 100cm = 1000mm to go from metres to millimetres *1000 to go from millimetres to metres /1000
You must multiply millimeter figures by 100 to change to decimeters.
Yes, you can divide millimeter figures by 100 to convert them directly to decimeters. Since there are 10 millimeters in a centimeter and 10 centimeters in a decimeter, dividing by 100 accounts for both conversions in one step.
Multiply by 1,000
To change meters into millimeters, multiply by 1000. (There are 1000 mm in 1 m.)
multiply by 10
you multiply the amount of centimeters by 10 to get to millimeters (cm = mm * 10)
There are 10 millimeters to every 1 centimeter. So, there would be more millimeters in a given length than centimeters. To increase a number you would multiply.
multiply by 1000, = 112,000mm
Multiply by 10 (there are 10 millimeters per centimeter).
To convert centimeters to millimeters, multiply the number of centimeters by 10. This is because there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter.
Multiply Km by 10^6
10 mm = 1 cm Divide
