Steps are simple: 1- Write the standards of conversion 2- Write the value you want to convert 3- Use cross multiplication to get the converted value
Examples: i- Say we want to convert 890 cm to meters. We know that 1 cm = 0.01 meters Now, we will write the number we want to convert and use cross multiplication as follows: 1 cm = 0.01 meters 890 cm = ?? meters converted value = (890*0.01) / 1 = 8.9 meters
ii- Say we want to convert 568 kg to grams. We know that 1 kg = 1000 grams Now, we will write the number we want to convert and use cross multiplication as follows: 1 kg = 1000 gram 568 kg = ?? grams converted value = (568*1000) / 1 = 568000 grams
