This math topic focuses on practicing metric unit conversions involving length measurements with decimal values. The problems require converting between different metric units (kilometers, hectometers, decameters, and decimeters), both from smaller to larger units and vice versa. Each problem provides a specific value in one metric unit and asks to convert it to another, offering multiple choice answers. This set of problems tests the understanding of metric length scales and the application of conversion factors in various contexts.
