Question

Check all that apply to determine the following conversion.

4 km = ? mm
•Move the decimal place over 6 until to the right
• Move the decimal place over 6 units to the left
•Divide 4 km by 1’000’000 to calculate mm
• Multiply 4km by 1’000’000 to calculate mm
• Add 1’000’000 to calculate mm
• Move the decimal place 6 units left, then 2 units to the right

Answer 1

4 km -> 400,000 mm

put a decimal point at the end of 4 and move it to the left 6 times because we know that 1 km is equal to 100,000 and it has zeros.

hence, it is proven that 4 km is equal to 4000,000.
