Answers

Complexity=1, Mode=metric

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	100 cm = m
Solution 100 cm × (1 m/100 cm) = 1 m

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	1 km = m
Solution 1 km × (1,000 m/1 km) = 1000 m

Complexity=4, Mode=metric

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	10 mm = cm
Solution 10 mm × (1 cm/10 mm) = 1 cm

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	2 m = cm
Solution 2 m × (100 cm/1 m) = 200 cm

Complexity=6, Mode=metric

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	4 km = m
Solution 4 km × (1,000 m/1 km) = 4000 m

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	500 cm = m
Solution 500 cm × (1 m/100 cm) = 5 m

Complexity=2, Mode=english

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	3520 yd = mi
Solution 3520 yd × (1 mi/1,760 yd) = 2 mi

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	2 mi = yd
Solution 2 mi × (1,760 yd/1 mi) = 3520 yd

Complexity=4, Mode=english

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	4 ft = in
Solution 4 ft × (12 in/1 ft) = 48 in

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	2 yd = ft
Solution 2 yd × (3 ft/1 yd) = 6 ft

Complexity=4, Mode=mixed

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
1	4000 m = km
Solution 4000 m × (1 km/1,000 m) = 4 km

#	Correct Answer	Your Answer
2	12 in = ft
Solution 12 in × (1 ft/12 in) = 1 ft

Complexity=6, Mode=mixed

Do the following conversions. Round to nearest tenth where necessary.
