HOW WE CAN CONVERT BETWEEN UNITS IN THE METRIC SYSTEM


• Kilometer: 1000 meters

• Hectometer: 100 meters

• Dekameter: 10 meters

• Meter: 1 meter

• Decimeter: 1/10 of a meter (10 cm)

• Centimeter: 1/100 of a meter (1cm)

• Millimeters: 1/1000 of a meter (1/10cm)

How we connect measurement with materials


• To make a material like rubber, you need to know how much latex and chemicals there are inside it.

• Materials like plastic can’t burn so they have to be put in a landfill. You need to measure how much can fit inside there.

• You need to have a certain size of paper such as A4 to fit inside some printers, so you have to measure and cut the edges if its not the right size.
