What I learned this week- measurement lesson #4

This week I learned how to convert within the metric system.

For example:

I’m converting 6780cm into m.

First you have to find out how many cm are in a m. -There are 100

So to convert it you need to make 6780cm a fraction

20161124_203945

Then you multiply it by

20161124_204301

The cm cancel each other out

20161124_204435

So your left with

20161124_204532

Divide it and you get 67.8m

The unit that you want to convert to always goes on the top.
