To convert measurements in the metric system you can move the decimal point left or right why does this work?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serhud [2]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Because when you move the decimal point once, it it equal to 10 and to convert in the metric system, you must multiply or divide by 10. For example, when converting 4 centimeters to millimeters, you can multiply by 10 to get 40 millimeters or you can move the decimal point to the right and add another 0 to get 40.
