1. Metric Conversions w/o Dimensional Analysis Just move the decimal!!

2. Metric Conversions To change from a smaller unit to a larger unit, move the decimal point to the left. 4206 mm = _____ cm = 420.6 cm

3. Try these…. Small units to larger units 500 ml = _______ L 1000 mL = 1L SO – move the decimal to the left 500 mL = 0.5 L Are the sig figs correct?

4. Try these…. Small units to larger units 1.03 cm = _______ m 100 cm = 1m So: 1.03 cm = 0.0103 m Are sig figs correct?

5. Metric Conversions To change from a larger unit to a smaller unit, move the decimal point to the right. 452. cm = _____ mm 4520 mm

6. Practice! Larger units to smaller units. 6 m = _______ mm 1 m = 1000 mm SO move the decimal to the right 6m = 6000 mm
