Respuesta :

The answer is false. You have to multiply by multiples of ten, since you're jumping from a bigger unit to smaller units. You're supposed to have numberically more smaller units than bigger units, since a lot of these smaller units are combined to create a single larger unit.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a large quantity is converted into small quantity, it is multiplied by some number which can also be "multiple of tens"

For example -

Meter is a larger unit as compared to centimeter. Hence, if five meter is converted into centimeter then it is to be multiplied by "[tex]100[/tex]"as one meter consists of [tex]100[/tex] centimeter.

For instance -

[tex]5[/tex] Meter [tex]= 500[/tex] centimeters

Hence, the given statement is false
