Answer 1

just remember this SENTENCE:
K ing ------- kilometre l when you're
H enry ------- hectare l converting
D ied l downwards
M iserable ------- metres v you multiply
D isease ------- decimetre l example:
C aused ------- centimetre l 5m=_cm
M easles ------- millimetre v 5x100= 500cm

when you convert upwards, you divide: 500cm=__m
500 divided by 100 = 5m

every ..uhmm... letter... represents 10...

i hope this helps you.. and i hope you get my explanation... it's so much easier when i'm explaining it to you verbally...

Answer 2

Simply multiply the number given by 100. Therefore 5 m equals to 500 cm.

Answer 3

1 meter = 100 centimeter so 5 m = 500 cm.

Answer 4

1 m = 100 cm
5 m = 500 cm

Answer 5

1 metre ("m") = 100 centimetres ("cm")
In order to convert m to cm, you multiply the variable of the metre by 100 to get into cm.

In your example, 5m = 500cm (5 *100)

centimeter-100
millimeter-1000

multiply by 100
the "cent" in centimeters means 1/100 (like cents and dollars in the US)
