Step 1: To convert from cubic centimeters (cm^3) to cubic meters (m^3), you need to know that 1 m^3 is equal to 1,000,000 cm^3. Therefore, to convert 8.5 cm^3 to m^3, you divide 8.5 by 1,000,000.
Step 2: To convert from cubic centimeters (cm^3) to cubic millimeters (mm^3), you need to know that 1 cm^3 is equal to 1,000 mm^3. Therefore, to convert 8.5 cm^3 to mm^3, you multiply 8.5 by 1,000.
Step 3: Carry out the calculations for each conversion without rounding until the final step to ensure accuracy.
Step 4: After calculating, make sure to include the correct units (m^3 for cubic meters and mm^3 for cubic millimeters) in your final answer.
Step 5: Finally, check your work to make sure your calculations and units are correct.
