You know that the prefix mili means one thousandth or 1/100.

Numerically speaking, one thousandth is equals to 10 to the power of negative 3.

Solving seconds to milliseconds:

6.7 seconds x 1000 milliseconds / 1 second

Cancelling out the unit seconds. Then multiplying 6.7 to 1000 milliseconds.

The answer is 6,700 milliseconds or 6.7 x 10^3 ms
