​Here's a short multiple-choice quiz on basic metric conversion tables for length, weight, and capacity... .

Enjoy!

​Here's a basic metric conversion table for length.

• ​1 millimetre (mm) = 0.001 metre (m)

• 1 centimetre (cm) = 0.01 metre (m)

• 1 decimetre (dm) = 0.1 metr (m)

• 1 kilometer (km) = 1000 meters (m)

​Here are simple methods for calculating conversions for length using the metric system.

• ​To convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit (e.g., mm to m), divide the value by the appropriate conversion factor.

• To convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit (e.g., m to cm), multiply the value by the appropriate conversion factor.

​Here's a basic metric conversion table for weight.

• ​1 milligram (mg) = 0.001 gram (g)

• 1 centigram (cg) = 0.01 gram (g)

• 1 decigram (dg) = 0.1 gram (g)

• 1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams (g)

• 1 metric ton (t) = 1000 kilograms (kg)

​Here are simple methods for calculating conversions for weight

using the metric system.

• ​To convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit (e.g., mg to g), divide the value by the appropriate conversion factor.

• To convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit (e.g., kg to g), multiply the value by the appropriate conversion factor.

​Here's a basic metric conversion table for length.

• ​1 millilitre (mL) = 0.001 litre (L)

• 1 centilitre (cL) = 0.01 litre (L)

• 1 decilitre (dL) = 0.1 litre (L)

• 1 kilolitre (kL) = 1000 litres (L)

​Here are simple methods for calculating conversions for capacity using the metric system.

• ​To convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit (e.g., mL to L), divide the value by the appropriate conversion factor.

• To convert from a larger unit to a smaller unit (e.g., L to cL), multiply the value by the appropriate conversion factor.
