Length: 1 km = 1000 m; 1 m = 100 cm; 1 cm = 10 mm. Weight: 1 tonne = 1000 kg; 1 kg = 1000 g. Capacity: 1 L = 1000 ml = 100 cl = 10 dl.
| From → To | Rule |
|---|---|
| km → m | × 1000 |
| m → cm | × 100 |
| kg → g | × 1000 |
| tonne → kg | × 1000 |
| L → ml | × 1000 |
| cl → ml | × 10 |

Perimeter = distance around a flat shape. Circumference = perimeter of a circle = 2πr. Volume of a cube = side³. Volume of a cuboid = l × w × h.
| Shape | Perimeter / Volume |
|---|---|
| Rectangle P | 2(l + w) |
| Circle C | 2πr |
| Cube V | s³ |
| Cuboid V | l × w × h |
| Cylinder V | πr²h |
