use different types of measurements
Divide by 1000 to change millimeters to meters; 25mm = 0.025m.
136 hundredths meters as a decimal is 1.36 meters or 1.36m
Move the 5 over past the decimal point and add a 0
The decimal representation of 50 centimeters is 50.0. In terms of meters, 50 centimeters is equivalent to 0.50 meters. Thus, as a decimal, it can be expressed simply as 0.50 when converted to meters.
To convert kilometers to meters, you move the decimal point three places to the right. This is because one kilometer is equal to 1,000 meters. For example, if you have 2.5 kilometers, moving the decimal three places to the right gives you 2,500 meters.

to move meters to centimeters you have to move the decimal to the right 2 times
The decimal point moves to the left.
To convert kilometers to meters, you move the decimal point three places to the right. This is because one kilometer is equal to 1,000 meters. For example, if you have 2.5 kilometers, moving the decimal three places to the right gives you 2,500 meters.
1 yard is equal to .9144 meter. Multiply .9144 times 100 and you get 91.44 meters (with 100 you shift the decimal to the right 2 places). With 1000 yards you shift the decimal over 3 places to get 914.4 meter and so on.
