Metric conversions worksheet for practicing unit conversions between kilometers and meters.

Let's solve the Metric Conversions worksheet step by step. The task is to convert between meters (m) and kilometers (km).

🔁 Conversion Rule:

- 1 kilometer (km) = 1000 meters (m)
- So, to convert meters → kilometers, divide by 1000.
- To convert kilometers → meters, multiply by 1000.

✔ Solutions:

#### Meters → Kilometers

1. $ 1000 \text{ m} = \frac{1000}{1000} = 1 \text{ km} $
2. $ 3000 \text{ m} = \frac{3000}{1000} = 3 \text{ km} $
3. $ 300 \text{ m} = \frac{300}{1000} = 0.3 \text{ km} $
4. $ 1800 \text{ m} = \frac{1800}{1000} = 1.8 \text{ km} $
5. $ 2600 \text{ m} = \frac{2600}{1000} = 2.6 \text{ km} $
6. $ 454 \text{ m} = \frac{454}{1000} = 0.454 \text{ km} $
7. $ 990 \text{ m} = \frac{990}{1000} = 0.99 \text{ km} $
8. $ 872 \text{ m} = \frac{872}{1000} = 0.872 \text{ km} $
9. $ 250 \text{ m} = \frac{250}{1000} = 0.25 \text{ km} $
10. $ 442.7 \text{ m} = \frac{442.7}{1000} = 0.4427 \text{ km} $
11. $ 892.7 \text{ m} = \frac{892.7}{1000} = 0.8927 \text{ km} $
12. $ 29.24 \text{ m} = \frac{29.24}{1000} = 0.02924 \text{ km} $

#### Kilometers → Meters

13. $ 1.6 \text{ km} = 1.6 \times 1000 = 1600 \text{ m} $
14. $ 2.42 \text{ km} = 2.42 \times 1000 = 2420 \text{ m} $
15. $ 3.578 \text{ km} = 3.578 \times 1000 = 3578 \text{ m} $
16. $ 4.2 \text{ km} = 4.2 \times 1000 = 4200 \text{ m} $
17. $ 5.93 \text{ km} = 5.93 \times 1000 = 5930 \text{ m} $
18. $ 6.552 \text{ km} = 6.552 \times 1000 = 6552 \text{ m} $
19. $ 0.34 \text{ km} = 0.34 \times 1000 = 340 \text{ m} $
20. $ 45.3 \text{ km} = 45.3 \times 1000 = 45300 \text{ m} $
21. $ 0.18 \text{ km} = 0.18 \times 1000 = 180 \text{ m} $
22. $ 77.4 \text{ km} = 77.4 \times 1000 = 77400 \text{ m} $
23. $ 25.4 \text{ km} = 25.4 \times 1000 = 25400 \text{ m} $
24. $ 0.25 \text{ km} = 0.25 \times 1000 = 250 \text{ m} $

📝 Explanation:

- Moving from meters to kilometers: Divide by 1000 (move decimal point 3 places left).
- Moving from kilometers to meters: Multiply by 1000 (move decimal point 3 places right).

For example:
- $ 300 \text{ m} = 0.3 \text{ km} $ → move decimal 3 places left: 300. → 0.300
- $ 0.34 \text{ km} = 340 \text{ m} $ → move decimal 3 places right: 0.34 → 340

This method works for all metric conversions involving powers of 10!
