Metric Mixed Units

Convert between mixed metric units and a single smaller unit by using whole large units, smaller-unit remainders, and the correct metric factor.

Mixed units use a large unit and a leftover smaller unit, such as 7 m 55 cm or 12 L 500 mL. In this topic, you convert both directions: mixed units to one smaller unit, and one smaller unit back to mixed units.
