Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How many microns (µ) are in a millimeter (mm)?
A
10 µ
B
100 µ
C
1, 000 µ
D
0.1 µ
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A Micron contains 0.001 Millimeters or a Millimeter comprises 1000 Microns. 1 Millimeter = 1000 Microns.

Detailed explanation-2: -A micron is a metric unit of measurement where one micron is equivalent to one one-thousandth of a millimetre [1 micron (1) = 1/1000 mm] or 1 micron (micrometer) = 1/1, 000, 000 of a metre.

Detailed explanation-3: -500 m / 1, 000 = 0.50 mm. 500 m is equal to 0.50 mm.

Detailed explanation-4: -1000 Microns = 1mm, so the higher the value, the thicker the card or paper. Usually paper or card is sold by weight as opposed to thickness, but sometimes you may see Microns instead. Thickness of card sold usually starts at around 200 microns, and finishes at around 500 microns.
