1.6 kilometers
1 mile
1 yard = 0.9444 meters
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

29. Metric Units
The basic unit of length in the metric system in the meter and is represented by a
lowercase m.
Standard: The distance traveled by light in absolute vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458 of
a second.
Metric Units
1 Kilometer (km) = 1000 meters
1 Meter = 100 Centimeters (cm)
1 Meter = 1000 Millimeters (mm)

Ruler: http://www.k12math.com/math-concepts/measurement/ruler-cm.jpg
How many millimeters are in 1 centimeter?
What is the length of the line in centimeters? _______cm
What is the length of the line in millimeters? _______mm
What is the length of the line to the nearest centimeter? ________cm
HINT: Round to the nearest centimeter – no decimals.
1 centimeter = 10 millimeters
