We use different metric units to measure :-
We can use our knowledge of multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 or 1000 to change or convert measurements in one unit to measurements in
another unit.
We are going to use our knowledge We are going to use our knowledge about multiplying and dividing by 100 about multiplying and dividing by 100 to convert centimeters to meters and to convert centimeters to meters and
to convert meters to centimeters.to convert meters to centimeters.
There are 100 centimetres in 1 metreWhen we change from cm to m we divide by:-
Remember!When we divide by 100 the units move two places to the right.
