Example Question (4) Convert 20 meter into centimetre.
Solution
We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeter
Therefore, 20 meter = 20 × 100 centimeter = 2000 centimeter
Thus, 20 meter = 2000 centimeter Answer
Example Question (5) Convert 200 meter into centimetre.
Solution
We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeter
Therefore, 200 meter = 200 × 100 centimeter = 20000 centimeter
Thus, 200 meter = 20000 centimeter Answer
Conversion of centimeter into millimeter
To convert a centimeter into millimeter we need to multiply the centimeter with 10, because 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter.
Example Question (1) Convert 5 centimeter into millimeter.
Solution
We know that 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 5 centimeter = 5 × 10 millimeter = 50 millimeter
Thus, 5 centimeter = 50 millimeter Answer
Example Question (2) Convert 10 centimeter into millimeter.
Solution
We know that 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 10 centimeter = 10 × 10 millimeter = 100 millimeter
Thus, 10 centimeter = 100 millimeter Answer
Example Question (3) Convert 15 centimeter into millimeter.
Solution
We know that 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 15 centimeter = 15 × 10 millimeter = 150 millimeter
Thus, 15 centimeter = 150 millimeter Answer
Example Question (4) Convert 20 centimeter into millimeter.
Solution
We know that 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 20 centimeter = 20 × 10 millimeter = 2000 millimeter
Thus, 20 centimeter = 2000 millimeter Answer
Example Question (5) Convert 250 centimeter into millimeter.
Solution
We know that 1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 250 centimeter = 250 × 10 millimeter = 25000 millimeter
Thus, 250 centimeter = 25000 millimeter Answer
Conversion of kilometer into meter
Since, 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Thus, to convert a kilometer into meter, we multiply the kilometer with 1000.
Example Question (1) Convert 2 kilometer into meter.
Solution
We know that 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Therefore, 2 kilometer (km) = 2 × 1000 meter = 2000 meter (m)
Thus, 2 kilometer (km) = 2000 meter Answer
Example Question (2) Convert 5 kilometer into meter.
Solution
We know that 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Therefore, 5 kilometer (km) = 5 × 1000 meter = 5000 meter (m)
Thus, 5 kilometer (km) = 5000 meter Answer
Example Question (3) Convert 10 kilometer into meter.
Solution
We know that 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Therefore, 10 kilometer (km) = 10 × 1000 meter = 10000 meter (m)
Thus, 10 kilometer (km) = 10000 meter Answer
Example Question (4) Convert 12 kilometer into meter.
Solution
We know that 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Therefore, 12 kilometer (km) = 12 × 1000 meter = 12000 meter (m)
Thus, 12 kilometer (km) = 12000 meter Answer
Example Question (5) Convert 125 kilometer into meter.
Solution
We know that 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Therefore, 125 kilometer (km) = 125 × 1000 meter = 125000 meter (m)
Thus, 125 kilometer (km) = 125000 meter Answer
Conversion of meter into millimeter
1 meter = 100 centimeter
1 centimeter = 10 millimeter
Therefore, 1 meter = 100 × 10 millimeter
⇒ 1 meter = 1000 millimeter
This means to convert a meter into millimeter, we need to multiply the given meter with 1000.
Example Question (1) Convert 5 meter into millimeter
Solution
We know that, 1 meter = 1000 millimeter
Therefore, 5 meter = 5 × 1000 millimeter = 5000 millimeter
