                example 4. Convert:
                             a.  6 m 9 dm into dm           c.  9 cm 7 mm into mm
                Solution.  a.  6 m 9 dm into dm
                                 6 m 9 dm = 6 m + 9 dm = (6 × 10) dm + 9 dm = 60 dm + 9 dm = 69 dm
                             c.  9 cm 7 mm into mm
                                 9 cm 7 mm = 9 cm + 7 mm = (9 × 10) mm + 7 mm

                                                                  = 90 mm + 7 mm = 97 mm

                        e.  16 cm 3 mm           f.  25 cm 8 mm           g.  35 cm 8 mm           h.  3 cm 11 mm

                Conversion of Smaller units of Length into Bigger units

                To convert a smaller unit into a bigger unit, we need to divide the smaller unit.
                The following examples will help you understand the conversion of units of length.

                example 1. Convert the following into metres.

                             a.  300 cm                     b.  500 cm
                Solution.  a.  We know that 100 cm = 1 m.
                                 300 cm = (300 ÷ 100) m = 3 m
                             b.  500 cm = (500 ÷ 100) m = 5 m

                example 2. Convert the following into kilometres.

                             a.  3000 m                     b.  8000 m
                Solution.  a.  3000 m (3000  ÷  1000) km = 3 km
                             b.  8000 m = (8000 ÷ 1000) km = 8 km
