Answer:

708 mm is equal to 0.708 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting unit measure is very useful in measuring materials. Especially, when the whole world is not using a uniform measurement unit.

Systems of Measurements
  • International System
  • The Modern form of The Metric System
  • British Imperial System
  • United States Customary System

To convert a unit measure to another, we need to have a conversion factor. Now, there are a lot of conversion factors, however, we need to choose the conversion factor that is appropriate for the problem.

Solution

                              [tex]708\:\text{mm} \times \left(\begin{aligned}\text{Conversion}\\\text{Factor}\end{aligned}\right)[/tex]    

We  know that 1 m = 1000 mm, so our conversion factors are [tex]\frac{1\:\text{m}}{1000 \:\text{mm}}[/tex] or [tex]\frac{1000\:\text{mm}}{1\:\text{m}}[/tex]. We need to decide which one of the conversion facotr to use.

The goal is we need to eliminate the unit "mm", so our conversion factor should something that has an "mm" unit in the denominator. Place the conversion factor inside the parenthesis, [tex]\frac{1\text{m}}{1000\:\text{mm}}[/tex], then simplify.

                             [tex]\begin{aligned}708\:\text{mm} \times \left(\frac{1\:\text{m}}{1000\:\text{mm}}\right)&=\frac{708\:\text{m}}{1000}\\&=0.708\:\text{m}\end{aligned}[/tex]
