    Study Notes

    Conversion Factors

    • Length:
      • 10 millimeters (mm) = 1 centimeter (cm)
      • 1,000 millimeters (mm) = 1 meter (m)
      • 100 centimeters (cm) = 1 meter (m)
      • 1,000 meters (m) = 1 kilometer (km)
    • Volume:
      • 1,000 milliliters (mℓ) = 1 liter (ℓ)
      • 1,000 liters (ℓ) = 1 kiloliter (kℓ)
    • Weight:
      • 1,000 milligrams (mg) = 1 gram (g)
      • 1,000 grams (g) = 1 kilogram(kg)
      • 1,000 kilograms (kg) = 1 tonne (t)

    Converting Metric Units

    • When converting from a larger unit to a smaller unit, multiply by the conversion factor.
    • When converting from a smaller unit to a larger unit, divide by the conversion factor.

    Imperial to Metric Conversions

    • From Metric to Imperial:*

    • 1 cm = 0.3937 inches (in)

    • 1 m = 1.0936 yards (yd.)

    • 1 km = 0.6214 miles (mi)

    • 1 m = 3.2808 feet (ft.)

    • From Imperial to Metric:*

    • 1 inch (in) = 2.54 cm

    • 1 yard (yd.) = 0.9144 m

    • 1 mile (mi) = 1.6093 km

    • 1 foot (ft.) = 0.3048 m

    Cooking Conversions

    • 1 cup = 250 mℓ
    • 1 tablespoon (tbsp.) = 15 mℓ
    • 1 teaspoon (tsp) = 5 mℓ

    Temperature Conversion

    • Celsius to Fahrenheit:*

    • °C = (°F – 32 ) × 5/9

    • Fahrenheit to Celsius:*

    • ºF = (9/5 × ºC) + 32

    Calculating Perimeter, Area and Volume

    • Perimeter is the total distance around the outside of a shape.
    • Area is the amount of surface a shape covers.
    • Volume is the amount of space a three-dimensional object occupies.

    Formulas

    • Distance: Distance = average speed × time
    • Volume of a Cylinder: Volume of a cylinder = π × ( radius )2 × height ,where π = 3.142
    • Area of a Triangle: Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height
