Squared & Cubic Units Flashcards

All 6 cards in this deck

How many square centimetres are there in $1\ \text{m}^2$?

$10\,000$, since $100^2 = 10\,000$.

How many square millimetres are there in $1\ \text{cm}^2$?

$100$, since $10^2 = 100$.

How many cubic centimetres are there in $1\ \text{m}^3$?

$1\,000\,000$, since $100^3 = 1\,000\,000$.

How many cubic millimetres are there in $1\ \text{cm}^3$?

$1000$, since $10^3 = 1000$.

What is the link between litres, cubic centimetres and cubic metres?

$1$ litre $= 1000\ \text{cm}^3$, so $1\ \text{m}^3 = 1000$ litres.

True or false? To convert an area from $\text{m}^2$ into $\text{cm}^2$ you multiply by 100.

False. You multiply by $100^2 = 10\,000$.
