                  Alternative: On converting cm into m, write the last two digits as cm and the remaining
                  digit as m.

                  For example, 3261 cm = 32 m 61 cm.
                  Kilometre into Metre

                  To convert kilometres into metres, we multiply the number of kilometres by 1000.
                  Example 4: Aditi goes to school daily by her bicycle. The distance of the school from her

                  house is 3 km. What is the distance in m?
                                                                                                               Note
                  Solution:  3 km = (3 × 1000) m = 3000 m                                                1 km = 1000 m.
                  Kilometre and Metre into Metre

                  To convert kilometres and metres into metres, we multiply the number of kilometres by
                  1000 and add the product to the number of metres.
                  Example 5: Raju travels a distance of 8 km 490 m. Find the distance in m.

                  Solution:  8 km 490 m = (8 × 1000) m + 490 m = 8000 m + 490 m = 8490 m

                                 Thus, Raju travels 8490 m.
                  Metre into Kilometre

                  To convert metres into kilometres, we divide the number of metres by 1000.
                  Example 6: Convert 7725 m into km.

                  Solution:  7725 m = 7000 m + 725 m  Or 7725 m = (7725 ÷ 1000) km

                                            = 7 km + 725 m                      = 7 km 725 m          1000 7725      7 km

                                            = 7 km 725 m                                                     7000

                                 So, 7725 m = 7 km 725 m.                                                     725 m
                  Alternative: To convert m into km, just write the last three digits as m and the remaining
                  digits as km.                                                            Remember

                  For example, 1332 m = 1 km 332 m.                                1                1
                                                                          250 m =    km, 500 m  =   km, 1000 m  = 1 km.
                                                                                   4                2
