How to change 2.14x10^-4 m^2 into mm^2?

OpenStudy (yttrium):

I can help you with this. To start, let me ask you how many meters are there in mm?

OpenStudy (imtant):

1m = 1000mm. Is this what you mean?

OpenStudy (yttrium):

That will do. So, we have \[2.14(10)^{-4}m^2\] right? To convert it in mm^2, \[2.14(10)^{-4}m^2 x [\frac{ 1000mm }{ 1m }]^2\] So far, can you follow?

OpenStudy (imtant):

Yes, I understand.

OpenStudy (yttrium):

So, no need for more explanation? :)

OpenStudy (imtant):

The answer is 214 mm^2.Is it right?

OpenStudy (yttrium):

I think it is not. How do you arrive that?

OpenStudy (imtant):

I'm just multiply all of them.

OpenStudy (imtant):

Why not?

OpenStudy (yttrium):

It will become \[0.000214m^2 x 1000\] right?

OpenStudy (imtant):

Right.So, how about 1000^2?

OpenStudy (yttrium):

Oh i forgot. hahaha. Sorry, My bad. Okay I gotta go :)

OpenStudy (imtant):

It's okay. Anyway,thanks. :)
