From centimeter to meter, you move the decimal one place to the right, and vice versa.
Multiply or divide by a power of 10.
Dimensional analysis
It is a multiple of 10.

1 centi is 10 times more than 1 milli. 1 milli is 1/10 of 1 centi. What helps me to remember is that one millimeter is a lot smaller (1/10) than a centimeter, so it takes more millimeters (10) to make one centimeter.
There isn't any one general answer. It depends on what unit you want to convert to what other unit.
Metric unit is easy. Costomary unit is an advanced unit
move the decimal point the the correct spot
Well, the only time you'd use this is in displacement of an irregular solid to find its density. In that case, if a liquid got displaced 200ml, you can convert it to cm3 like this: 200ml=200cm3
You don't really "convert a unit of measurement"; you convert from one unit to another. The two - "from" and "to" are always required.
That means that if you have a measurement in one unit, you convert it to another unit. For example, if a measurement is given in millimeters, you may need to convert it to meters.
The metric system is used by scientists because it is based on factors of ten. This makes it easy to convert from one unit of measurement to another.
You can't convert that. In general, you can only convert from one unit to another of the same kind, for example, one unit of mass to another unit of mass.
You can't convert that. You can convert from one unit of length to another, or from one unit of area to another, but you can't convert between units of length and area.
You can't convert that. You can convert from one linear unit to another linear unit, or from one square unit to another square unit, but not between linear units and square units.
You can't convert that. You can convert from one linear unit to another linear unit, or from one square unit to another square unit, but not between linear units and square units.
Liter is a unit of volume. A metric ton is a unit of mass equal to 1000 kilograms. You can only convert volume to mass if you have a specific substance you are dealing with, and you know the properties of that substance.
