What don't you understand about these problems?
always multiply b something that is the same top and bottom except for the name of the unit
for example
100 cm / 1 m is the same top and bottom
so is
1 m/ 100 cm
so if I have
105 m
and I want cm
I do
105 m (100 cm/m) = 10500 cm
or
2000 mL (1 L / 1000 mL) = 2 L
or
3400 g (1 kg/1000 g) = 3.4 kg
etc etc etc
