To convert between different units of length, you need to understand the conversion factors between these units. Here are the correct answers for the given conversions:
1. To convert from centimeters (cm) to millimeters (mm), you multiply by 10. Therefore, 5 cm = 5 x 10 = 50 mm. So, your answer is correct.
2. To convert from meters (m) to centimeters (cm), you multiply by 100. Therefore, 2000 m = 2000 x 100 = 200,000 cm. So, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is 2000 m = 200,000 cm.
3. To convert from meters (m) to millimeters (mm), you multiply by 1000. Therefore, 1 m = 1 x 1000 = 1000 mm. So, your answer is correct.
4. To convert from meters (m) to centimeters (cm), you multiply by 100. Therefore, 15 m = 15 x 100 = 1500 cm. So, your answer is correct.
5. To convert from meters (m) to centimeters (cm), you multiply by 100. Therefore, 1 m = 1 x 100 = 100 cm. So, your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is 1 m = 100 cm.
So, out of the 5 conversions, you have 3 correct answers and 2 incorrect answers.
