Question
convert 15 centigrams to milligrams
There are 100 centicgrams in a gram.
There are 1000 milligrams in a gram.
This means the deciam needs to be shifted 1 unit to the right.
Since there is nothing to the right, it is 0 to the right.
This means that 15 cg is the same as 15.0 cg.
Now we can make the shift, so 15.0 cg into 150 mg.
