Measurement of Length Measurement of Weight Conversions

Centimetre (cm)- Small unit of length used for short Milligram (mg)- Used 1 km = 1000 m
measurements. to measure very light 1 m = 1/1000 km
things. 1 m = 100 cm
Gram (g)- Used 1 cm = 1/100 m
to measure light
objects. 1 kg = 1000 g
Metre (m)- Unit of length 1 g = 1/1000 kg
used to measure longer kilogram (kg)- Used to
lengths. measure heavy weights. 1 L = 1000 mL
It is the standard unit of 1 mL = 1/1000 L
weight.
Kilometre (km)- Large unit 141 km
of length used to measure Addition of Measurement
long distances.
