Both Standard and Metric Measurement To convert a large unit of measurement to a smaller unit, you will
multiply. For Example: 10 feet = ________inches 10 x 12 (inches per foot) = 120 inches
To convert a small unit of measurement to a larger unit, you will divide. For Example: 25 cm = ________ meters 25 ÷ 0.01 (centimeters per meter) = 0.25 meters
