What fractional part of a meter is 1 centimeter?

8. What fractional part of a meter is 1 centimeter?
Fractional is an important word. It tells you to make a fraction. Numerator Denominator The denominator of the fraction is how many parts are in one whole.

9. What fractional part of a meter is 1 centimeter?
From the Mathematics Chart: 1 meter = 100 centimeters That tells us there are 100 centimeter parts in one whole meter (our denominator)

10. What fractional part of a meter is 1 centimeter?
Now that we know there are 100 parts in the whole, we can start to write our fraction: ? 100

11. What fractional part of a meter is 1 centimeter?
The top number, called the Numerator, tells how many parts you have. According to the question, you have 1 centimeter

12. Now it is YOUR turn…
What fractional part of a kilometer is 1 meter? Remember to use your mathematics chart!

13. Converting Length
Mary needs 300 centimeters of kite string. How many millimeters does she need? From your Mathematics Chart 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters

14. Mary needs 300 centimeters of kite string.
How many millimeters does she need?
From your Mathematics Chart 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters X 300 X cm 3,000mm

15. Now it is YOUR turn…
Peter’s race is 40 meters long. How many centimeters is his race? Remember to use your mathematics chart!

16. Converting Capacity
