  1. Measurement

  2. (Standard)Measurements of Length • 1 ft = • 1 yd = ft = in • 1 mi = ft = yd

  3. (Standard)Measurements of Weight • 1 lb = oz • 1 T = lb

  4. (Standard) Measurements of Capacity (Volume) • 1 c = fl oz • 1 pt = c = fl oz • 1 qt = pt = c • 1 gal = qt = pt = c

  5. Metric Measurements • Length = • Mass (weight) = • Capacity (volume) =

  6. Metric Prefixes kilo- 1000 hecto- 100 deka- 10 1 deci- 0.1 centi- 0.01 milli- 0.001 multiply by 10 divide by 10

  7. Unit Conversions • Use the cancellation method:

  8. Example 1 • Find the equivalent measurements: • 13,236 inches = ? miles • 2.34 kiloliters = ? milliliters

  9. Find the equivalent measurements: • 2 gal = ? fl oz • 4,650 oz = ? lb • 250 cm = ? m • 15 g = ? mg

  10. Example 2 • A clothing designer needs 1 yd 2 ft of material for a pair of pants. For the coordinating shirt, 2 ft 6 in of material are needed. The material is measured in inches. How much material does the designer need for the entire outfit?

  11. Example 3 • You use 2 kg of ground beef to make 20 hamburgers. How many grams does each hamburger weigh?

  12. Example 4 • To make punch, you use 6 quarts of pineapple juice, 7 quarts of lemon-lime soda, and 1 quart of orange juice. How many cups of punch are made?
