KC 1 Animation: Length in the Customary System

Example 1 Draw a Line Segment Answer: Draw a line segment measuring inches. Draw a line segment from 0 to.

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 1 Which line segment is inches long? A. B. C. D.

Example 2 RUBBER BANDS Measure the length of the rubber band to the nearest half, fourth, or eighth inch. Measure Length and

Example 2 Measure Length

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 2 CRAYONS Measure the length of the crayon to the nearest half, fourth, or eighth inch. A. B. C. D.

Example 3 Change Larger Units to Smaller Units Complete 7 ft = ■ in. Method 1 Use a ratio table. You know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. Set up the ratio table with the measures you know. Since 1 × 7 = 7, multiply each quantity by 7.

Example 3 Change Larger Units to Smaller Units Method 2 Select an appropriate operation. Since 1 foot = 12 inches, multiply 7 by × 12 = 84 Answer: So, 7 feet = 84 inches.

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 3 A.48 B.60 C.72 D.84 Complete 5 ft = ■ in.

Example 4 Complete 27 ft = ■ yd. Since 3 feet = 1 yard, divide 27 by ÷ 3 = 9 Answer: So, 27 feet = 9 yards. Change Smaller Units to Larger Units

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 4 A.11 B.27 C.69 D.99 Complete 33 ft = ■ yd.

Example 5 A 3,600 mi B 5 mi C 3 mi D 2 mi Vincent wants to walk a total of 5 miles. So far, he has walked 5,400 yards. Which is closest to the distance in miles that Vincent still has to walk? Read the Item You need to find the number of miles Vincent still has to walk. Solve the Item Change 5,400 yards to miles, then subtract from 5 to find how many miles Vincent still has to walk. Change Units to Solve a Problem

Example 5 Since 1,760 yards = 1 mile, divide 5,400 by 1,760. Answer: D 5,400 ÷ 1,760 ≈ 3.07 or 3 So, Vincent has already walked about 3 miles. Since 5 − 3 = 2, he still has 2 miles to walk. Change Units to Solve a Problem

1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 5 A.2 ft B.3 ft C.4 ft D.5 ft Jolene bought 6 feet of rope. She used 34 inches for her science project. Which is closest to the amount of rope Jolene has left?
