Hmm... I'm not sure, is this what u need ..! There are many metric-unit prefixes, but the usual ones required in school are these: kilo-, hecto-, deka-, deci-, centi-, and milli-. To convert between the various prefixes, and thus the variously-sized units, you just move up and down this list of prefixes, moving the decimal point as you go. To remember the prefixes in order, you can use the following sentence: King Henry Doesn't [Usually] Drink Chocolate Milk The first letters of the words stand for the prefixes, with "Usually" in the middle standing for the "unit", being meters, grams, or liters. Many memory phrases omit the "Usually", and consequently students forget where the basic unit goes, messing up their conversions. Leave the "Usually" in there so you can keep things straight: kilo- hecto- deka- [unit] deci- centi- milli- Since each step is ten times or one-tenth as much as the step on either side, we have: 1 kilometer = 10 hectometers = 100 dekameters = 1000 meters = 10 000 decimeters = 100 000 centimeters = 1 000 000 millimeters Alternatively, we have: 1 milliliter = 0.1 centiliters = 0.01 deciliters = 0.001 liters = 0.000 1 dekaliters = 0.000 01 hectoliters = 0.000 001 kiloliters The point here is that you move from one prefix to another by moving the decimal point one place, filling in, as necessary, with zeroes. To move to a smaller unit (a unit with a prefix some number of places further to the right in the listing), you move the decimal place to the right that same number of places, and vice versa. Together with the prefix sentence ("King Henry..."), this makes conversion between the different metric sizes very simple. Ref: http://www.purplemath.com/modules/metric.htm
