    Answer:

    Answer is decigram to dekagrams

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here in this question, we are interested in selecting which of the conversion requires a division.

    When converting from one unit to another, we either divide or multiply

    When we multiply, it means we are going from a bigger unit to a smaller unit, for example in the case of kilograms to grams

    When we divide, it means we are going from a smaller unit to a bigger unit , for example in the case of grams to kilograms

    Now, whatever answer we shall be choosing is going from a smaller unit to a bigger one.

    So let’s evaluate all the conversions, one at a time;

    a. kilograms – centigrams

    Actually, kilograms is bigger than centigrams, so in this case we shall be multiplying and not dividing

    b. decimeters to millimeters

    In this case, decimeters is bigger than millimeters, so we shall be multiplying and not dividing

    c. Hectometers to decimeters

    in this case , hectometer is bigger than decimeter, so we shall all be multiplying and not dividing

    d. decigrams to dekagrams

    A dekagram is bigger than a decigram, so in this case, we shall be dividing

    While a dekagram is 10 grams, a decigram is 0.1 grams
