First we need to define some things:

m means meters
mm means millimeters
cm means centimeters

1 m = 100 cm
1 mm = 0.1 cm

They are asking for us to convert 23.6 cm to m and mm

Lets start with 23.6 cm to m:


(23.6cm )/(1) * (1m)/(100cm) = 0.236m
(the cm's cancel each other out)

Convert 23.6 cm to mm:


(23.6cm)/(1) * (1mm)/(0.1cm) = 236mm
(again the cm's cancel out)

Hope this helps!
