Length – The distance from one point to another. How many caterpillars long is the pencil?

Width The distance across from side to side. Width 4 inches

Length - Metric millimeter (mm) A metric unit for measuring length and distance 1,000 millimeters = 1 meter centimeter (cm) A metric unit for measuring length and distance 100 centimeters = 1 meter meter (m) A metric unit for measuring length and distance 1 meter = 100 centimeters

Millimeter About the width of a piece of poster board

Centimeter – A metric unit of length Your pinky is about one centimeter wide.

Meter About the length of a baseball bat.

– A rule that is written as an equation Formula – A rule that is written as an equation Width 4 Length 2 To find the area of the rectangle, multiply the length by the width. The formula for area is length x width. What is the area of the rectangle?

Area – Square Units The number of square units needed to cover a surface Example: The area is 9 square units.

Customary Measure - Length The following are customary units for measuring length or distance inch (in.) 12 inches = 1 foot foot (ft) 1 foot = 12 inches yard (yd) 1 yard (yd) = 3 feet, or 36 inches mile (mi) 1 mile (mi) = 1,760 yards, or 5,280 feet

Inch The width of a postage stamp is about 1 inch.

Foot A 12 inch ruler is 1 foot long.

Yard The width of a door is about 1 yard.

Mile Long distances are measured in miles.
