1 centimeter (cm) = 10 milimeters (mm)

1 decimeter (dm) = 10 cm

1 meter (m) = 10 dm

1 m = 100 cm = 1000 mm.

1 kilometer (km) = 1000 m

1 cm = 1/100 m

1 mm = 1/10 cm

1 m = 1/1000 km

Examples:
1 m 3 dm = _13_ cm 1 m = 100 cm; 1 dm = 10 cm; 3 dm = 1 x 10 cm = 30 cm; 1 m 3 dm = 100 cm + 30 cm = 130 cm
35 cm = _3_ dm 1 cm = 1/10 dm; = 35 x (1/10)dm = 3 dm 5 cm

Cpmplete the following:
1) 1 m 2 dm = ______ cm 2) 2 km 45 m = _______ m
3) 2 cm 6 mm = _______ mm 4) 400 cm = ________ m
