How to do two step metric conversation

The metric prefixes are used to eliminate writing a bunch of zeroes - just like scientific notation. We typically pick the most convenient unit to report a value. And, the prefix must accompany a basic unit - meter, gram, liter, second or mole.

We frequently need to perform conversions from one metric prefix to another. We can use the formalism outline in module 0 if we use the table above to create conversion factors. Just remember that the size of the prefix substitutes for the prefix itself.

Explanation:

Example 1:

If a textbook weighs 1,100 g, the value should be reported as 1.1 kg since 1 kg = 1 x 103 g or 1000 g.

Example 2:

Write out all the conversion factors between meters and the prefixes combined with meters using the table above.

i think its 100

i hope this !
