9. 4-6 Metric Measurements To convert metric units, multiply or divide by a power of 10. Multiply to convert to a smaller unit and divide to convert to a larger unit.

10. 4-6 Metric Measurements Move the decimal point 2 places left: 530. Convert the measure. 530 cL to liters 530 cL = (530 ÷ 100) L 100 cL = 1L, so divide by 100. = 5.3 L Additional Example 2A: Converting Metric Units

11. 4-6 Metric Measurements Additional Example 2B: Converting Metric Units 1,070 g = (1070  1000) mg 1 g = 1000 mg, so multiply by 1000. = 1,070,000 mg Move the decimal point 3 places right: 1,070,000. Convert the measure. 1,070 g to milligrams

12. 4-6 Metric Measurements Check It Out: Example 2A 980 dm = (980 ÷ 10) m 10 dm = 1m, so divide by 10. = 98 m Move the decimal point 1 place left: 980. Convert the measure. 980 dm to meters

13. 4-6 Metric Measurements Check It Out: Example 2B 580 g = (580  100) cg 1 g = 100 cg, so multiply by 100. = 58,000 cg Move the decimal point 2 places right: 58,000. Convert the measure. 580 g to centigrams

14. 4-6 Metric Measurements Additional Example 3: Using Unit Conversion t to Make Comparisons Elizabeth purchases one pumpkin that weighs 3 kg and another that weighs 2,150 g. Which pumpkin weighs more? Use estimation to explain why your answer makes sense. You can convert the mass of Elizabeth’s pumpkin to grams. 1 kg = 1000 g, so multiply by 1,000. 3 kg = (3  1,000) g Move the decimal point 3 places right: 3.000. = 3,000 g 2,150 g is about 2 kg. Since 2 kg < 3 kg, Elizabeth’s 3 kg pumpkin weighs more.

15. 4-6 Metric Measurements Check It Out: Additional Example 3 Tyesha purchases a bag of potatoes that weighs 2.5 kg and another bag that weighs 3,850 g. Which bag weighs more? Use estimation to explain why your answer makes sense. You can convert the mass of Tyesha’s bag to grams. 1 kg = 1000 g, so multiply by 1,000. 2.5 kg = (2.5 x 1,000) g Move the decimal point 3 places right: 2.500. = 2,500 g 3,850 g is about 4 kg. Since 4 kg > 2.5 kg, Tyesha’s 3,850 g bag weighs more.
