This math topic focuses on converting metric mass units with decimals. It includes questions that require converting various units such as decagrams, kilograms, hectograms, and centigrams to and from smaller units like milligrams, centigrams, and decigrams. The problems range from converting into larger units, such as kilograms from hectograms, to smaller units, such as centigrams from milligrams, ensuring practice across scales the metric system uses for mass measurement. The skill emphasized is applying correct conversion factors and handling decimal placement to accurately convert between different scales of mass measurement.
