Answering "How many decimal places to the right do you move to change kilometer square to meter square?"
There are ten centimeters in a decimeter. Just move the decimal point.
1 kilometer=100,000 centimeters
1 kilometer=100,000 centimeters
1 kilometer=100,000 centimeters
to move meters to centimeters you have to move the decimal to the right 2 times
Very simple. There are 100 centimeters in a meter, and 1000 meters in a kilometer, so there are 100,000 centimeters in a kilometer, and a centimeter is .00001 of a kilometer. Multiply the number of centimeters by .00001 to convert to kilometers, and make sure not to misplace the decimal.
1 kilometer is 5 powers of ten greater than one centimeter. Therefore, you move the decimal point left by 5 spots to convert. 4000000 centimeters = 40.00000 kilometers
move the decimal to the left
Answering "How many decimal places to the right do you move to change kilometer square to meter square?"
You move it to the right.
Take the number of centimeters, move the decimal point 2 places this way and you have centimeters.
67.3 kilometers = 6,730,000 centimeters
There are ten centimeters in a decimeter. Just move the decimal point.
You move six decimal places
I have no idea
1 kilometer=100,000 centimeters
