    Unit Conversions with Dimensional Analysis

    • Dimensional analysis involves converting units by using conversion factors.
    • Conversion factors are ratios that express how many of one unit are equal to another.

    Common Conversions

    • Centimeters to Meters:

      • 1 cm = 0.01 m
      • Conversion example: 20.33 cm = 0.2033 m
    • Liters to Centiliters:

      • 1 L = 100 cL
      • Conversion example: 12.06 L = 1206 cL
    • Kilograms to Grams:

      • 1 kg = 1000 g
      • For 32.27 kg, multiplication by 1000 yields 32,270 g.
    • Meters to Centimeters:

      • 1 m = 100 cm
      • Conversion for 13.09 m results in 1309 cm.
    • Millimeters to Meters:

      • 1 mm = 0.001 m
      • For 3.47 mm, the conversion requires division by 1000.
    • Kilograms to Grams (alternate example):

      • For 33.81 kg, the conversion to grams equals 33,810 g.
    • Kiloliters to Liters:

      • 1 kL = 1000 L
      • Therefore, 9.92 kL converts to 9,920 L.
    • Grams to Milligrams:

      • 1 g = 1000 mg
      • For example, 2.61 g equals 2,610 mg.

    Additional Conversions

    • Grams to Milligrams:

      • Conversion of 24.37 g results in 24,370 mg.
    • Liters to Centiliters:

      • 28.77 L converts to 2,877 cL as there are 100 cL in a liter.
    • Milliliters to Liters:

      • 1 mL = 0.001 L
      • Conversion for 22.04 mL results in 0.02204 L.
    • Liters to Milliliters:

      • 1 L = 1000 mL
      • Thus, 9.42 L converts to 9,420 mL.
    • Cubic Centimeters to Milliliters:

      • 1 cm³ = 1 mL
      • Hence, 20.03 cm³ equals 20.03 mL.
    • Kilograms to Milligrams:

      • Conversion factor is 1 kg = 1,000,000 mg.
      • For 1.47 kg, it equals 1,470,000 mg.
    • Milliliters to Centiliters:

      • 1 mL = 0.1 cL
      • For 7.18 mL, the conversion yields 0.718 cL.
