1.25×10^ −10 by 2.5×10^−8 millimeters
1.25×10^−11 by 2.5×10^−9 millimeters
1.25×10^−6 by 2.5×10^−4 millimeters
1.25×10^−5 by 2.5×10^−3 millimeters
To convert the dimensions from meters to millimeters, we need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 millimeters in a meter.
The width of the sticky note in millimeters is: 1.25 × 10^(-8) meters * 1000 = 1.25 × 10^(-5) millimeters (1.25 × 10^(-8) * 1000 = 1.25 × 10^(-5))
The length of the sticky note in millimeters is: 2.5 × 10^(-6) meters * 1000 = 2.5 × 10^(-3) millimeters (2.5 × 10^(-6) * 1000 = 2.5 × 10^(-3))
So the dimensions in millimeters are 1.25 × 10^(-5) by 2.5 × 10^(-3) millimeters.
