Convert $4000\ mm\ 400\ cm$ into meters.

  1. $44\ m$
  2. $4.4\ m$
  3. $8\ m$
  4. $80\ m$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $1$  $centimeter =10$  $mm$, $1$  $meter =100$  $cm$

$1$  $meter =1000$  $mm$ or   $1$  $mm =\dfrac{1}{10}$  $cm$ or   $1$  $mm =\dfrac{1}{1000}$  $m$

To convert  $4000$ $mm$ $400$  $cm$  to  $meters$

$4000mm$ $400$  $cm$ $ = 4000mm + 400cm$

Now, $4000$ $mm =\dfrac{1}{1000} \times 4000$  $m$ $= 4$  $m$
$400$ $cm =\dfrac{1}{100} \times 4 00$ $m$ $= 4$ $m$


$4000mm$ $400$ $cm$ $ = 4000mm + 400cm  =   (4+4)  m$

                                $ = 8$  $m$

So, Option $C$ is correct

Convert $23\ dm\ 9\ cm$ into centimeters.

  1. $2.39\ cm$
  2. $23.9\ cm$
  3. $239\ cm$
  4. $2390\ cm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $1$  $meter =100$  $cm$, $1$  $decimeter =10$  $centi meter$


To convert  $23$ $dm$  $9$  $cm$  to  $centimeter$
Now, $23$ $dm = 23 \times 10$  $cm$ $= 230$  $centimeter$

$23$ $dm$  $9$  $cm$ $ = 23dm + 9cm$
                         $ = 230cm + 9cm$
                         $ = 239cm$

So, Option $C$ is correct

Convert $3\ m\ 40\ cm$ into millimeters.

  1. $7000\ mm$
  2. $3400\ mm$
  3. $4300\ mm$
  4. $700\ mm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know that


$1$  $meter =100$  $cm$

$1$  $centimeter =10$  $milli meter$

$1$  $ meter =1000$  $mm$


Given That, we have to convert  $3$ $m$  $40$  $cm$  to  $millimeter$


$40$ $cm = 10 \times 40$  $mm$

               $= 400$  $millimeter$
And 

$3$ $m = 1000 \times 3$  $mm$

               $= 3000$  $millimeter$

$3$ $m$  $40$  $cm$ $ = 3m + 40cm$


                   $ = 3000mm + 400mm$
                   $ = 3400mm$

So, Option $B$ is correct

Convert $6045\ m$ into kilometres and metres.

  1. $6\ km\ 45\ m$
  2. $60\ km\ 45\ m$
  3. $6\ km\ 450\ m$
  4. $645\ km$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

We know that


$1$  $kilo meter =1000$  $m$

$1$  $m =\dfrac1{1000}$  $km$

Given That, we have to convert $6045$  $m$  to   $kilometer$

$6045$  $m =\dfrac1{1000} \times 6045$  $km$

                $=\dfrac{6045}{1000}   $  $km$

                 $= 6.045$  $kilo meter$

or    $= 6$  $km$  $45 $ $m$

So, Option $A$ is correct

Jessica walks $2\ km$ a day. How many meters does she walk in two days ?

  1. $40$ meters
  2. $400$ meters
  3. $4000$ meters
  4. $4$ meters
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

given that 

Jessica walks $2 km$ a day.
Total distance travelled by Jessica in TWO days  is $2 \times 2 =4km$



We know that

$1$  $kilometer =1000$  $m$

$1$  $m =\dfrac1{1000}$  $km$

Given That, we have to convert $4$  $km$ into $m$

$4$  $km =4 \times 1000$  $m$

                $=4000$  $m$

So, Option $C $ is correct

Convert $567\ mm$ into decimeters.

  1. $567\ dm$
  2. $56.7\ dm$
  3. $5.67\ dm$
  4. $0.567\ dm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

We know that


$1$  $deci meter =10$  $cm$

$1$  $centimeter =10$  $milli meter$

$1$  $deci meter =100$  $mm$

$1$  $mm =\dfrac1{100}$  $dm$

Given That, we have to convert $567$  $mm$  to  $decimeter$

$567$ $cm =\dfrac1{100} \times 567$  $dm$

                $=\dfrac{567}{100}   $  $dm$

                 $= 5.67$  $deci meter$


So, Option $C$ is correct

Convert $4\ cm\  38\ m$ into decimeters.

  1. $384\ dm$
  2. $380.4\ dm$
  3. $420\ dm$
  4. $38.04\ dm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know that, $1$ $decimeter =10$ $cm$, $1$  $meter =10$  $dm$ or $1$  $centimeter =\dfrac{1}{10}$  $dm$

To convert  $4$ $cm$ $38$  $m$  to  $decimeter$

$4\ cm$ $38$ $m$ $ = 4cm + 38m$
Now, $38$ $m = 10 \times 38$  $dm$ $= 380$  $dm$
$4$ $cm =\dfrac{1}{10} \times 4$ $dm$ $= 0.4$  $dm$


$4\ cm$ $38$ $m$ $ = 4cm + 38m  =   (0.4+380)  dm$ $ = 380.4 $  $dm$


So, Option $B$ is correct

  1. $1200\ mm$
  2. $120\ mm$
  3. $12\ mm$
  4. $1.2\ mm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

We know that

$mm = millimeter$

$1$  $deci meter =10$  $cm$

$1$  $centi meter =10$  $mm$

$1$  $deci meter =100$  $mm$


$12$  $dm =12 \times 100$  $mm$

                 $= 1200$  $milli meter$

So, Option $A$ is correct
