"milli-" = 1/1,000 (thousandth)
"micro-" = 1/1,000,000 (millionth)
"nano-" = 1/1,000,000,000 (billionth)
"pico-" = 1/1,000,000,000,000 (millionth of a millionth, "micro micro-")
Yes. When the units are the same, compare the numbers. The units are both kilograms (kg), thus the numbers can be compared: 2 < 7 → 2 kg < 7 kg.
Because in any given measurement, there are more of the smaller units than bigger units. There are less than 2 metres in my height (1.78 m). But in a smaller unit, eg centimetre, there are is 178 of them. That is a staggering 1780000 micrometres tall :) But, then again, that is only 0.00178 kilometres :(
To compare 2 lb and 42 oz, we need to convert both measurements to the same unit. Since 1 lb is equal to 16 oz, 2 lb is equal to 32 oz (2 lb x 16 oz/lb). Therefore, 2 lb is smaller than 42 oz.
Ten times smaller.
it is smaller (1/2)/2=.25
they are 2 different units in measurement mm=length mg= weight

An inch consists of 16 scale divisions (1/16, 2/16, etc.) If you consider metric system, then the smaller measure units would be centimeter (1 inch = 2.54 cm) and millimeter (1 cm = 10 mm).
-2-2=? it would be -4-2 is smaller than 2 and also -2 is smaller than 0
smaller
2/5 is smaller than 2/4
Compare digits from the highest place value to the lowest place value. If a place value is empty it is zero. Both have 0 units; Both have 2 tenths; 0.234 has 3 hundredths whereas 0.2 has no (0) hundredths, 3 > 0 therefore 0.234 > 0.2 ).2 is less than 0.234
Smaller. Much smaller.
How many times larger is the 2 in the millions period than the 2 in the thousands period? 269 872 805

A dry pint is smaller than a peck, as a peck equals 8 dry quarts or 32 dry cups, while a dry pint is only 2 dry cups. Additionally, a dry quart, which is half a peck, is also smaller and equals 4 dry cups. Other smaller units include a cup and a fluid ounce.
