Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.000001: 1,500 × 0.000001 ≈ 0.0015 km, against the exact 0.0015 km (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.
Common mistakes
The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A millimeter is smaller than a kilometer, so the number of kilometers must come out smaller than the number of millimeters. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
