Metric System, how do you do these

**dandelionclockk** · September 16th 2009, 02:56 PM

I didn't know what Category to put this in so it's in here.
Okay so I'm not understanding how to do these:
6.2 kilograms= _______ grams
78.36 liters= ________ milliliters
12.3 meters= ________ centimeters
I really just have no clue

What do I need to know to get the answer to these and such..

$\times 1000$

You have 3 conversion problems, I gave you 3 conversion factors.

Common sense can be used.
