Insta-Metric Conversion Table

Want an incredibly easy way to jump back and forth between different metric measures? Just use the fantastic “insta-metric” table below. Make a copy of it to post in a conspicuous spot on your unit. Always remember, a milliliter is to a liter as a microgram is to a milligram.

1,000 mL = 1 L	1,000 mg = 1 g
100 cL = 1 L	100 cg = 1 g
10 dL = 1 L	10 dg = 1 g
10 L = 1 dkL	10 g = 1 dkg
100 L = 1 hL	100 g = 1 hg
1,000 L = 1 kL	1,000 g = 1 kg
