Metric Conversion Practice Sheet

Use the following conversion factors to convert the units given to the units asked:

1000 mg = 1 g 1 L = 1000 mL 1000 mm = 1 m 1000 g = 1 kg 100 cm = 1 m 1

cm​3 ​= 1 cc = 1 mL 10 dm = 1 m 1 in = 2.54 cm 1 dL = 100 L 12 in = 1 ft 1 y =
365.25 d 1 d = 24 h 1 yd = 3 ft 1 lb. = 454 g

Example: 25 mg = _______ g

25 mg ​1 × 1​ g ​1000 mg = 25
​ g ​1000 = 0.025 g You

1. 123 mL = ​0.123 ​L

123/1=1000/1 7. 98000 dm​3 ​=​98​ m3

123/1000=0.123
98000/1000=98

3. 98.7 L = ​98700 ​mL

8. 0.032 g/mL = ​32000​mg/L

98.7/1=1/1000=​98700​/1
0.032x1000000=32000

5. 54.7 m​2 ​= ​547000​cm2

54.7 x 10000=​547000
