Answers
(1) a. 3720128

Step 1
We have:

3 km 720128 mm = 3 km + 720128 mm
= (3 × 1000000) mm + 720128 mm [∵ 1 km = 1000000 mm]
= 3000000 mm + 720128 mm
= 3720128 mm
Step 2
Thus, 3 km 720128 mm = 3720128 mm.

(2) c. 2470

Step 1
We have:

2 m 47 cm
=2 m + 47 cm
=(2 × 1000) mm + (47 × 10) mm [∵ 1 m = 1000 mm,1 cm = 10 mm]
=2000 mm + 470 mm
=2470 mm
Step 2
Thus, 2 m 47 cm = 2470 mm.

(3) a. 2 dm 5 cm

Step 1
We have:

250 mm = (250 ÷ 10) cm [∵ 10 mm = 1 cm]

= 25 cm
= 20 cm + 5 cm
= (20 ÷ 10) dm + 5 cm [∵ 10 cm = 1 dm]
= 2 dm + 5 cm
= 2 dm 5 cm
Step 2
Thus, 250 cm = 2 dm 5 cm.

(4) b. 4 km 10311 cm

Step 1
We have:

4103110 mm = (4103110 ÷ 10) cm [∵ 10 mm = 1 cm]

= 410311 cm
= 400000 cm + 10311 cm
= (400000 ÷ 100000) km + 10311 cm [∵ 100000 cm = 1 km]
= 4 km + 10311 cm
= 4 km 10311 cm
Step 2
Thus, 4103110 cm = 4 km 10311 cm.

(5) 1435

Step 1
We have

1 km 4 hm 3 dam 5 m
=1 km + 4 hm + 3 dam + 5 m
=(1 × 1000)m + (4 × 100)m + (3 × 10)m + 5 m [∵ 1km = 1000m,1hm = 100m,1dam = 10m]
=1000 m + 400 m + 30 m + 5 m
=1435 m
Step 2
Thus, 1 km 4 hm 3 dam 5 m = 1435 m.

(6) 300

Step 1
We know 1 dm = 100 mm.
So,

3 dm = 3 × 100 mm = 300 mm

Step 2
Thus, 3 dm = 300 mm.

(7) 2 1

Step 1
We have:

21 m = 20 m + 1 m
= (20 ÷ 10) dam + 1 m [∵ 10 m = 1 dam]
= 2 dam + 1 m
= 2 dam 1 m
Step 2
Thus, 21 m = 2 dam 1 m.

(8) 8

Step 1
We have:

80 dm = (80 ÷ 10)m [∵ 10 dm = 1 m]
=8m
Step 2
Thus, 80 dm = 8 m.

(9) 6327

Step 1
We have

6 km 3 hm 2 dam 7 m
=6 km + 3 hm + 2 dam + 7 m
=(6 × 1000)m + (3 × 100)m + (2 × 10)m + 7 m [∵ 1km = 1000m,1hm = 100m,1dam = 10m]
=6000 m + 300 m + 20 m + 7 m
=6327 m
Step 2
Thus, 6 km 3 hm 2 dam 7 m = 6327 m.

(10) 8642

Step 1
We have

8 km 6 hm 4 dam 2 m
=8 km + 6 hm + 4 dam + 2 m
=(8 × 1000)m + (6 × 100)m + (4 × 10)m + 2 m [∵ 1km = 1000m,1hm = 100m,1dam = 10m]
=8000 m + 600 m + 40 m + 2 m
=8642 m
Step 2
Thus, 8 km 6 hm 4 dam 2 m = 8642 m.
