Scientists use the metric system of measurement, based on the number 10. It is important to be able to convert from one unit to another. Convert the following: 1. 3. 5. 7. 9. 35ml=________L 950g= ________mg 275 mm=______cm 15ml=________L 567mm=______m 2. 4. 6. 8. 10. 4500mg= __________g 25cm= __________mm 1000L=__________cm3 15g= ____________Hg 1.3m=___________dam
