Explanation

The chapter teaches that 1 cm = 10 mm. To draw lines in mm, students convert to cm and mm format. For example, 36 mm = 3 cm 6 mm means drawing 3 cm and then counting 6 small millimetre marks.

Solution Steps

  1. Convert 36 mm to cm and mm: 36 mm = 3 cm 6 mm

  2. Draw 3 cm and add 6 small millimetre marks

  3. Convert 67 mm to cm and mm: 67 mm = 6 cm 7 mm

  4. Draw 6 cm and add 7 small millimetre marks

  5. Remember: 1 cm = 10 mm (the scale has millimetre marks between centimetre marks)
