Change to Smaller Units

In this activity, we will learn how to convert measurements into smaller units.

Example

1 tonne (t) = 1,000 kilograms (kg) so 12 t = 12 x 1,000 = 12,000 kg

1 litre (l) = 100 centilitres (cl) so 4 l = 4 x 100 = 400 cl

1 centilitre (cl) = 10 millilitres (ml) so 9 cl = 9 x 10 = 90 ml

Let's use this information to answer some questions.
