Measurement Benchmarks

The Metric System

Metric Linear Measurement (length)

Millimeter (mm) Millimeter = thickness of a dime

Centimeter (cm) Centimeter = width of a fingernail One centimeter = 10 millimeters

Meter (m) Meter = width of a door frame One meter = 1,000 millimeters or 100 centimeters

Kilometer (km) Kilometer = driving down the highway One kilometer = 1,000 meters

Metric Capacity

Milliliter (mL) Milliliter = one drop from a medicine dropper

Liter (L) Liter = bottle of soda One liter = 1,000 milliliters

Metric Mass

Milligram (mg) Milligram = a speck of dust

Gram (g) Gram = the mass of a paper clip One gram = 1,000 milligrams

Kilogram (kg) Kilogram = the mass of a baseball bat One kilogram = 1,000 grams

The Customary System

Customary Linear Measurement (length)

Inch (in.) Inch = the space between joints on your finger

Foot (ft) Foot = about the length of an adult foot One foot = 12 inches

Yard (yd) Yard = width of a door One yard = 3 feet or 36 inches

Mile (mi) Mile = driving down the highway One mile = 1,760 yards or 5,280 feet

Customary Capacity

Cup (c) Cup = a small cup One cup = 8 fluid ounces

Pint (pt) Pint = a small container of ice cream One pint = 2 cups

Quart (qt) Quart = a bottle of motor oil One quart = 2 pints or 4 cups

Gallon (gal) Gallon = a large container of milk One gallon = 4 quarts

Customary Weight

Ounce (oz) Ounce = the weight of a slice of bread

Pound (lb) Pound = the weight of a loaf of bread One pound = 16 ounces

Ton (T) Ton = the weight of a bread truck One ton = 2000 pounds
