| Medications are ordered in grams or fractions, like micrograms or milligrams | Medications are ordered in grams or fractions, like micrograms or milligrams |
| 1 milligram is 1000 times smaller than 1 gram so 1000 milligram = 1 gram | 1 milligram is 1000 times smaller than 1 gram so 1000 milligram = 1 gram |
| 1 microgram is 1000 times smaller than a 1 milligram and 1 million times smaller than 1 gram | 1 microgram is 1000 times smaller than a 1 milligram and 1 million times smaller than 1 gram |
| It takes 1 million mcg = 1 gram | It takes 1 million mcg = 1 gram |
| Kilo grams are very large and are not used for measuring medication | Kilo grams are very large and are not used for measuring medication |
| Kilograms are 1000 times larger than a gram ( 1 kg = 1000 g ) | Kilograms are 1000 times larger than a gram ( 1 kg = 1000 g ) |

| Volume = Liter | Volume = Liter |
| 1000 mL = 1 Liter | 1000 mL = 1 Liter |
| 1 mL = 0.001 L | 1 mL = 0.001 L |
| cc = cubic centimeters | cc = cubic centimeters |
| cc & milli Liters are same | cc & milli Liters are same |
| 1 L = 1000 mL | 1 L = 1000 mL |
| 1 kilogram = 1000 grams | 1 kilogram = 1000 gram |
| 1 gram = 1000 milligrams | 1 gram = 1000 milligrams |
| 1 milligram = 1000 micrograms | 1 milligram = 1000 micrograms |
| 1 liter = 1000 milliliters (mL) | 1 liter = 1000 milliliters (mL) |

| 1 kg = 1000 grams | 1 kg = 1000 grams |
| 1 gram = 1000 mg | 1 gram = 1000 mg |
| 1 mg = 1000 mcg | 1 mg = 1000 mcg |
| 1 Liter = 1000 mL | 1 Liter = 1000 mL |
| to convert smaller to larger (divide-move decimal 3 left ) example: 100 mL = .100 L or 0.1 L | to convert smaller to larger (divide-move decimal 3 left ) example: 100 mL = .100 L or 0.1 L |
| 100 mL = ? Liters | 0.1 Liters |
| 50 mg = ? g | 0.05 g |
| 0.75 grams = ? milligrams | 750 mg |
