Isn't is "King Henry doesn't usually Drink chocolate milk*

@BrainSTEM 7 лет назад

Sure, any saying that helps you remember it!

@jasmineneal5005 7 лет назад

Why did you add extra zeros to the 47? Please explain it

@BrainSTEM 7 лет назад

Here's an example that may help. In the Olympics they measure swimming times to the hundreth of a second so even if you swam a lap in 14 seconds flat, when it appears on the leader board the time would read 14.00 seconds. Why? Because it shows a specific degree of accuracy that is important when you compare it to the other swimmer's times. Any whole number, let's say 14 for example, can be written like this: 14.0 (tenths place) or 14.00 (hundredth place) or 14.000 (thousand place) Hope that helps

@AshCatGaming 7 лет назад

so it will be easy the Zeros that he put means the b,d,c,m so it much easy to explain us move the decimal. ( p.s im not good at math )

I teach 8th grade science and this method really helps them and makes it more fun. I also have them create their own saying if they want....they come up with some funny ones!

@crystal4348 4 года назад

Would this work for Giga, Mega, Micro, Nano, and pico? If not any suggestions on remembering the conversions?

@oneartsychick1 4 года назад

Yes, just keep going beyond the beginning and end of this chart (the K and the m) - Wikipedia has a great chart of SI (System of units) and you can use it to expand this. Remember that the exponents do change so you’ll have to “leave spaces in the between” so that you can just move freely about the chart. Kinda hard to explain in a comment, but you’ll get the hang of it when you see the chart and start doing it.
