1. **Stating the problem:** Convert between different units of volume and measure, compare values, and arrange volumes in increasing order.

### Example 3: Volume unit conversions
2. **Formula and rules:**
- $1\text{ km}^3 = 1000^3 = 10^9\text{ m}^3$
- $1\text{ hm}^3 = 100^3 = 10^6\text{ m}^3$
- $1\text{ dm}^3 = 1\text{ L} = 1000\text{ cm}^3$
- $1\text{ cm}^3 = 1000\text{ mm}^3$
3. **Conversions:**
**a) Convert 3 km³ to hm³:**
$$3\text{ km}^3 = 3 \times 1000\text{ hm}^3 = 3000\text{ hm}^3$$
**b) Convert 0.45 cm³ to mm³:**
$$0.45\text{ cm}^3 = 0.45 \times 1000\text{ mm}^3 = 450\text{ mm}^3$$
**c) Convert 6 hm³ to km³:**
$$6\text{ hm}^3 = 6 \times \frac{1}{1000}\text{ km}^3 = 6 \times \frac{1}{\cancel{1000}}\cancel{\text{ km}^3} = \frac{6}{1000} = 0.006\text{ km}^3$$
**d) Convert 8 cm³ to dm³:**
$$8\text{ cm}^3 = 8 \times \frac{1}{1000}\text{ dm}^3 = \frac{8}{1000} = 0.008\text{ dm}^3$$

### Example 4: Volume to milliliters and liters
4. **Formula and rules:**
- $1\text{ cm}^3 = 1\text{ mL}$
- $1\text{ mm}^3 = 0.001\text{ mL}$
- $1\text{ dm}^3 = 1\text{ L}$
- $1\text{ m}^3 = 1000\text{ L}$
5. **Conversions:**
**a) 23 cm³ to mL:**
$$23\text{ cm}^3 = 23\text{ mL}$$
**b) 4792 mm³ to mL:**
$$4792\text{ mm}^3 = 4792 \times 0.001\text{ mL} = 4.792\text{ mL}$$
**c) 178 dm³ to L:**
$$178\text{ dm}^3 = 178\text{ L}$$
**d) 267 m³ to L:**
$$267\text{ m}^3 = 267 \times 1000\text{ L} = 267000\text{ L}$$

### Example 5: Comparing units
6. **Convert to same units and compare:**
**a) 2 m and 20 dm:**
$$20\text{ dm} = 20 \times 0.1\text{ m} = 2\text{ m}$$
So, $2\text{ m} = 20\text{ dm}$
**b) 14 cm and 1 dam:**
$$1\text{ dam} = 10\text{ m} = 1000\text{ cm}$$
So, $14\text{ cm} < 1000\text{ cm}$
**c) 215 m² and 12 dam²:**
$$12\text{ dam}^2 = 12 \times (10)^2 = 12 \times 100 = 1200\text{ m}^2$$
So, $215 < 1200$
**d) 18 km² and 450000 m²:**
$$18\text{ km}^2 = 18 \times (1000)^2 = 18 \times 1,000,000 = 18,000,000\text{ m}^2$$
So, $18,000,000 > 450,000$

### Example 6: Arrange volumes in increasing order
7. **Convert all to dm³ or L (1 dm³ = 1 L):**
**a)**
- $347\text{ dm}^3 = 347$ L
- $0.45\text{ m}^3 = 0.45 \times 1000 = 450$ L
- $58\text{ L} = 58$ L
- $56,345\text{ cm}^3 = 56,345 \times 0.001 = 56.345$ L
Order: $56.345 < 58 < 347 < 450$
**b)**
- $12\text{ cm}^3 = 0.012$ L
- $21,670\text{ mm}^3 = 21,670 \times 0.001 = 21.67$ mL = 0.02167 L
- $51\text{ mL} = 0.051$ L
- $0.03\text{ L} = 0.03$ L
Order: $0.012 < 0.02167 < 0.03 < 0.051$
