I am just confused about how you get the grams/cm TO mg/mm.

Answer 16

liike move kilo metres to meters, just have it like this

Answer 17

You have to take to account two things: 1 g equals 1000 mg so 1.42 g equals 1420 mg. On the other hand 1 mm^2 equals 100 cm^2 since 1 cm is 10 mm. So 1420 mg/cm^2 becomes 14.20 mg/mm^2.
