  1. International System of Units (SI)

  2. Measurement = # and unit • Ex: Miss. Pitre ran 10 km • Base unit of length is the metre (m) • “ “ “ mass is the gram (g) • “ “ “ volume the litre (L) SI Handout

  3. Prefixes • Part of word found before base unit • m = milli  multiply base unit by 1000 • c = centi  “ “ “ “ 100 • d = deci  “ “ “ “ 10 • da = deca  divide base unit by 10 • h = hecto  “ “ “ “ 100 • k = kilo  “ “ “ “ 1000

  4. Do the following • 983 m = _____ km • 72 g = _____ cg • 343 475 L = _____ daL • 8 349 m = _____ mm

  5. Multiplication trick • When multiplying by 10, 100, 1000… • Add as many zeros to the # as 10, 100, 1000.. has • Ex: 356 x 1000 = 356 000 • Move the decimal to the right by the # of zeros in 10, 100, 1000… • Ex: 1.782 x 100 = 178.2 • Do these: • 3746 x 100 = • 5.4345 x 1 000 000 =

  6. Division trick • When dividing by 10, 100, 1000… • Take away as many zeros to the # as 10, 100, 1000… has • Ex: 175 000 ÷ 10 = 17 500 • Move the decimal to the left by the # of zeros in 10, 100, 1000… • Ex: 92 843.7 ÷ 10 000 = 9.28437 • Try these: • 42 635 ÷ 100 = • 8 200 000 ÷ 100 000 =

  7. Multiplying/Dividing by Decimals • Multiplying by 0.1 is like dividing by 10 • “ “ 0.01 “ “ “ “ 100 • “ “ 0.001 “ “ “ “ 1000 • Dividing by 0.1 is like multiplying by 10 • “ “ 0.01 “ “ “ “ 100 • “ “ 0.001 “ “ “ “ 1000

  8. 3874 x 0.01 = • 39.82475 ÷ 0.001 = • 435.456 x 0.1 = • 20 938 ÷ 0.1 =
