General Tables of Units of Measurement
| 10 millimeters (mm) | = 1 centimeter (cm) |
|---|---|
| 10 decimeters | = 1 meter (m) = 1000 millimeters |
| 10 meters | = 1 dekameter (dam) |
| 10 dekameters | = 1 hectometer (hm) = 100 meters |
| 10 hectometers | = 1 kilometer (km) = 1000 meters |
What are the 4 units of measurement?
The four units under review are the ampere, kilogram, mole and kelvin.
What are the 3 types of measurement?
The three standard systems of measurements are the International System of Units (SI) units, the British Imperial System, and the US Customary System. Of these, the International System of Units(SI) units are prominently used.
