To convert a given unit to a larger unit, you need to determine the conversion factor between the two units. Divide the given value by the conversion factor to get the answer in the larger unit.
In the metric system basic units are multiplied or divided by 10 to get larger and smaller units

Divide by the conversion factor to get the equivalent value in the smaller unit.
Because the number of larger units will be less than the number of smaller units, and when you divide the answer is usually smaller than the number you started with.
You must divide.
That depends on what you are converting from. If you are converting from larger units, you multiply. If you are converting from smaller units, you divide.
No, never.
divide by the conversion factor. eg mm to m - divide by 1000 eg in to ft - divide by 12
To convert a given unit to a larger unit, you need to determine the conversion factor between the two units. Divide the given value by the conversion factor to get the answer in the larger unit.
To change from a smaller unit to a larger unit, you have to divide. For example, 100 centimetres is equal to 1 metre.

To find this out, divide the larger number by the smaller number.To find this out, divide the larger number by the smaller number.To find this out, divide the larger number by the smaller number.To find this out, divide the larger number by the smaller number.
The number of units will decrease and if it is going from largest to smallest the number of units will increase.
