Main Idea/Vocabulary Convert units of area and volume between customary and metric systems.

NGSSS MA.8.G.5.1 Compare, contrast, and convert units of measure between different measurement systems (US customary or metric (SI)) and dimensions including temperature, area, volume, and derived units to solve problems. Also addresses MA.8.A.6.4

Example 1 Convert Units of Area Convert 12 square yards to square feet. Multiply by. = 12 × 3 ft × 3 ft = 108 ft 2 Answer:12 yd 2 = 108 ft 2

Example 1 CYP A.2 ft 2 B.4 ft 2 C.5 ft 2 D.6 ft 2 Convert 720 square inches to square feet.

Example 2 AIR QUALITY Morgan is using an air purifier in a room that he estimates holds about 27 cubic yards of air. How many cubic feet of air will the air purifier need to clear? Convert Units of Volume = 27 × 3 ft × 3 ft × 3 ft = 729 ft 3 Answer: The purifier will need to clear 729 cubic feet of air. Multiply by.

Example 2 CYP A.2.5 in 3 B.360 in 3 C.4,320 in 3 D.51,840 in 3 BUILDING How many cubic inches of concrete will a builder need for a rectangular patio that has a volume of 30 cubic feet?

Example 3 Convert Between Systems Complete the conversion. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. 24 in 2 ≈ __ cm 2 ≈ cm 2 Multiply. Answer: Multiply by.

Example 3 CYP A.0.39 B.1.16 C.4.83 D Complete the conversion. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. 3 km 2 ≈ __ mi 2

Example 4 Complete the conversion. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. 90 ft 3 ≈ __ m 3 Convert Between Systems ≈ 2.55 m 3 Multiply. Answer:2.55 m 3 Multiply by.

Example 4 CYP A B C D Complete the conversion. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. 5 gal 3 ≈ __ L 3

Example 5 Convert Units of Volume SOY MILK An individual carton of soy milk is 5 centimeters wide, 9 centimeters tall, and 3 centimeters deep. How many liters of soy milk completely fill the carton? Step 1 Find the volume. V = bwh V = 5 cm 9 cm 3 cm V = 135 cm 3

Example 5 Convert Units of Volume Answer: So, liter of soy milk completely fills the carton. Step 2 Find the capacity. = L
