Question

Carry out the given conversions from one metric unit of length to another.

1.23 nm = ? mm

Answer 1

1.23*10⁻⁶ mm

Explanation:

1 nano meter = 10⁻⁶ millimeter

So to convert nm to mm we can use the conversion ratio as,

mm = nm / 1,000,000

That is nanometer is divided by 1,000,000 so that nm gets converted into millimeter.

So 1.23nm/1000,000 = 1.23*10⁻⁶ mm
