| 2) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 7 cm 6 mm = cm Answer:_______________ |
| 3) convert; m cm = 938cm Answer:_______________ |
| 4) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 6.1 m = m cm Answer:_______________ |
| 5) convert; 3.1cm = cm mm Answer:_______________ |
| 6) convert; 114cm = m cm Answer:_______________ |
| 7) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 8 cm 3 mm = cm Answer:_______________ |
| 8) convert; m cm = 278cm Answer:_______________ |
| 9) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 6.4 m = m cm Answer:_______________ |
| 10) convert; 7.1cm = cm mm Answer:_______________ |
| 1) convert; 708cm = Answer: 7 m Answer: 8 cm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm)
Find out how many metres are in 117 centimetres.
Divide: 708 ÷ 100 = 7 R 8 There is 7 metre, with 8 centimetres left over. 708 cm = 7 m 8 cm

| 2) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 7 cm 6 mm = Answer: 7.6 cm SOLUTION 1 : 1 centimetre (cm) = 10 millimetres (mm) Convert the 6 millimetres to centimetres. Divide: 6 ÷ 10 = 0.6 6 mm = 0.6 cm Now add this to the 7 centimetres you already have: 7 cm 6 mm = 7 cm + 0.6 cm 7 cm 6 mm = 7.6 cm |
| 3) convert; Answer: 9 m Answer: 38 cm = 938cm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm) Find out how many metres are in 938 centimetres. multiply: 9 x 100 = 900
9 m = 900 cm
Now add this to the centimetre you already have: 900 cm 38 cm = 900 cm + 38 cm  938 cm = 900cm + 38 cm
|
| 4) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 6.1 m = Answer: 6 m Answer: 10 cm SOLUTION 1 : 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm)
Separate the whole number part and decimal part.
6.1 m = 6 m + 0.1 m Convert the 0.1 metres to centimetres. Multiply: 0.1 × 100 = 10 0.1 m = 10 cm Now express the original measurement in metres and centimetres: 6.1 m = 6 m + 0.1 m 6.1 m = 6 m 10 cm
|
| 5) convert; 3.1cm = Answer: 3 cm Answer: 1 mm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 centimetre (cm) = 10 millimetres (mm) Separate the whole number part and decimal part. 3.1 cm = 3 cm + 0.1 cm Convert the 0.1 centimetres to millimetres. Multiply: 0.1 × 10 = 1 0.1 cm = 1 mm Now express the original measurement in centimetres and millimetres: 3.1 cm = 3 cm + 0.1 cm 3.1 cm = 3 cm 1 mm |
| 6) convert; 114cm = Answer: 1 m Answer: 14 cm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm)
Find out how many metres are in 117 centimetres.
Divide: 114 ÷ 100 = 1 R 14 There is 1 metre, with 14 centimetres left over. 114 cm = 1 m 14 cm
|
| 7) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 8 cm 3 mm = Answer: 8.3 cm SOLUTION 1 : 1 centimetre (cm) = 10 millimetres (mm) Convert the 3 millimetres to centimetres. Divide: 3 ÷ 10 = 0.3 3 mm = 0.3 cm Now add this to the 8 centimetres you already have: 8 cm 3 mm = 8 cm + 0.3 cm 8 cm 3 mm = 8.3 cm |
| 8) convert; Answer: 2 m Answer: 78 cm = 278cm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm) Find out how many metres are in 278 centimetres. multiply: 2 x 100 = 200
2 m = 200 cm
Now add this to the centimetre you already have: 200 cm 78 cm = 200 cm + 78 cm  278 cm = 200cm + 78 cm
|
| 9) Convert. Write your answer as a decimal. 6.4 m = Answer: 6 m Answer: 40 cm SOLUTION 1 : 1 metre (m) = 100 centimetres (cm)
Separate the whole number part and decimal part.
6.4 m = 6 m + 0.4 m Convert the 0.4 metres to centimetres. Multiply: 0.4 × 100 = 40 0.4 m = 40 cm Now express the original measurement in metres and centimetres: 6.4 m = 6 m + 0.4 m 6.4 m = 6 m 40 cm
|
| 10) convert; 7.1cm = Answer: 7 cm Answer: 1 mm SOLUTION 1 : Remember: 1 centimetre (cm) = 10 millimetres (mm) Separate the whole number part and decimal part. 7.1 cm = 7 cm + 0.1 cm Convert the 0.1 centimetres to millimetres. Multiply: 0.1 × 10 = 1 0.1 cm = 1 mm Now express the original measurement in centimetres and millimetres: 7.1 cm = 7 cm + 0.1 cm 7.1 cm = 7 cm 1 mm |
