I'm in my first Chemistry class/8th grade, and I need help please. We don't have our text books yet, which makes things even more difficult. When we ask the teacher a question, he says "moving right along..."
Although I'd like the answers, I'd really like to know how to figure them out for myself so I'll know how to do so in the future.
I need to solve the following:
1. How many METERS are in a CENTIMETER?
2. HOW many CENTIMETERS are there in a KILOMETER?
3. SQUARE CENTIMETERS are in a cubic meter? (is that a trick question or something)?
and, finally, the last one I don't know how to solve
If a garden measures 15 meters by 12 meters, what is the area of the garden in meters and what is the area of this garden in square feet assuming that 1 m = 3.3 feet. What would the area of the garden be in square centimeters?
Thanks so much for any help explaining to me how to solve these. I want to learn how and want to do well in this class.
