*
(d) $59 \times 100 = 5900$ cm
*
(e) $750 \times 100 = 75,000$ cm
*
(f) $105 \times 100 = 10,500$ cm
*
(g) $2.5 \times 100 = 250$ cm
*
(h) $8.2 \times 100 = 820$ cm
*
(i) $1.53 \times 100 = 153$ cm
*
(j) $0.6 \times 100 = 60$ cm
*
(k) $0.38 \times 100 = 38$ cm
*
(l) $0.03 \times 100 = 3$ cm

Question 2: Convert to metres (m)
To convert from centimetres (cm) to metres (m), you divide by
100.
*
(a) $300 \div 100 = 3$ m
*
(b) $700 \div 100 = 7$ m
*
(c) $900 \div 100 = 9$ m
*
(d) $1400 \div 100 = 14$ m
*
(e) $250 \div 100 = 2.5$ m
*
(f) $740 \div 100 = 7.4$ m
*
(g) $1000 \div 100 = 10$ m
*
(h) $348 \div 100 = 3.48$ m
*
(i) $80 \div 100 = 0.8$ m
*
(j) $70 \div 100 = 0.7$ m
*
(k) $53 \div 100 = 0.53$ m
*
(l) $2 \div 100 = 0.02$ m

Question 3: Convert to centimetres (cm)
To convert from millimetres (mm) to centimetres (cm), you divide by
10.
*
(a) $60 \div 10 = 6$ cm
*
(b) $30 \div 10 = 3$ cm
*
(c) $65 \div 10 = 6.5$ cm
*
(d) $87 \div 10 = 8.7$ cm
