Why Measure

Two Main Systems of Measurement Used International System of Units- (SI) Metrics (units of 10) Meter, Gram, Kilogram, liter US Customary or Standard System Inch, mile, yard, foot, pound, gallon, pint

METRIC SYSTEM (SI) Based on units of 10 Each unit is 10X bigger or smaller than the next unit. Uses meter, gram, liter. Prefix - precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a multiple or fraction of the unit.

Prefix (before base unit) King – (Kilo) Means Thousand or 1000X Henry- (Hecto) hundred or 100X Doesn’t (Deca) ten or 10X Usually Means base unit or 1X Drink (Deci) Tenth or 0.1X or 1/10 Chocolate (centi)hundredth or 0.01 or 1/100 Milk (milli) Thousandth or 0.001 or 1/1000

LENGTH

Length The measurement or extent of something from end to end Base Unit Meter

Practice Prefixes A millimeter is 1/1000 of a meter A kilogram is 1000x a gram

Conversion Stand up and Measure the height (length) of your table buddy in meters – record in your notes Convert to kilometers What was the multiplier? Convert to centimeters?

Weight the amount or quantity of heaviness or mass Base Unit Grams What is your weight in Kg? Convert pounds to Kg (lbs / 2.2) Convert to grams Convert to milligrams

Volume Units of volume include: The amount of 3-dimensional space an object occupies. Capacity. Base Unit Liter or Metric: cubic centimeters (cm3), cubic meters (m3),

CONVERT A graduated cylinder has 1 Liter of liquid. How much liquid in milliliters? How much liquid in kiloliters? How much liquid in pints? pints (2.11 pints in 1 liter or 0.4732 liters in each pint) Complete these problems and show your work! Now show all these measurements of equal

THINK A Penny has a mass of approximately 2.5 grams. How many pennies does it take to make 1 kg? How many pieces would you need to break to two pennies into to have a mass of a milligram?

Volume of a cube The height of a a cube is 1 meters, the length is 1 meter, and the width is 1 meter. What is the capacity or volume of the cube? Make sure the units are correct. What is this capacity or volume in mL (1 cubic meter (m3) = 1000 mL

Use Ladder Method

Know This 1000 mL = 1 liter (they are the same) 100 cL = 1 liter (they are the same) 10 dl = 1 liter (they are the same) Fill in the answers below 1 gram = mg (they are the same) 1 meter = cm (they are the same) 1 kilometer is meters (same)
