They are done this way. Note that the conversion factor is placed such that the units you don't want cancel (the m) and the unit you want to keep stays (mm)

i. 8.5 m x (1000 mm/1 m) = ? mm
iii. 400 mL x (1 L/1000 mL) = ? L
(mL cancels because you don't want that. The L stays so it goes on top).
vii. 8E6 km x (1 000 m/1 km) x (1E9 nm/1 m) = ? nm

You work on the others.
