Question
  • How are these equal? How would I know to match these?

    25 km = 25,000 m

    2.5 cm = 2.5 × 104 μm

  • 0.25 m = 2.5 × 108 nm

  • 2.5 mm = 2.5 × 10-6 km

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • 1Km =1000 m

25× 1000 = 25000

Therefore, 25 km = 25000m

 

  • 1m = 10micro m

1m = 100cm

1cm = 10000 micro meter

therefore, 2.5 cm= 2.5 ×104 micro meter
