What to Focus On

  • Standard unit of length is metre (m).
  • Standard unit of mass is gram (g).
  • Standard unit of capacity is litre (L).
  • Use km for long distances, m for medium, cm/mm for small.
  • Multiply when going from big to small units.
  • Divide when going from small to big units.
  • Kilogram is used for heavy objects.
  • Gram is the standard unit.
  • Milligram is very small, used in medicines.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1 metre is 100 times bigger than 1 centimetre, so to convert cm to m, I multiply by 100.

Kilogram is the smallest unit of weight, so we can't measure anything lighter than that.

When adding measurements, I can add the numbers directly even if they are in different units.

Memory Tips

Metric prefixes: Kilo, Hecto, Deca, (Unit), Deci, Centi, Milli

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 100 cm

1 cm = 10 mm
