Measurement Converting units of measurement

LENGTH

Length Length measures the distance between two points.

Formal units for measuring length mm = millimetres m = metres cm = centimetres km = kilometres

Formal units for measuring length mm = millimetres m = metres cm = centimetres km = kilometres

Formal units for measuring length mm = _________ ___ = metres cm = _______ __ = kilometres

Converting units of measurement 10 mm = 1 cm 100 cm = 1 m 1000 m = 1 km

Convert these units of measurement 20 mm = __ cm ___ cm = 2 m 2500 m = ___ km

Convert these units of measurement __ mm = 10 cm 500 cm = ___ m ____ m = 9.5 km

Answer true or false to the statements below 15 mm < 105 cm 500 cm > 5 m 950 m = 9.5 km

Answer true or false to the statements below 22 mm > 220 cm 50 cm = 0.5 m m > 1 km

AREA AND PERIMETER

Area Area measures the space within an object.

Formal units for measuring area mm ² = millimetres squared m ² = metres squared cm ² = centimetres squared km ² = kilometres squared

Formula for measuring area Area = Length x Width A = L X W

Perimeter Perimeter measures the length around an object.

Formula for measuring perimeter Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width P = (L + L) + (W + W)

CAPACITY

Capacity Capacity measures the amount an object can hold. This is usually in liquid form.

Formal units for measuring capacity mL= millilitres L = litres kL = Litres

Formal units for measuring capacity mL= _______ ___ = litres kL = ________

Converting units of measurement 1000 mL = 1 L 1000 L = 1 kL

Converting units of measurement 1000 mL = __ L ___ L= 1 kL

Convert these units of measurement 2500 mL = __ L ___ L= 4 kL 5.5 L = _____ mL 3300 L = ____ kL

Answer true or false to the statements below 500 mL < 0.5 L 250 mL = 0.25 L 1000 mL < 10 L 10 L > 1 kL

VOLUME

Volume Volume measures the amount of space within an object.

Formal units for measuring volume mm ³ = millimetres cubed m ³ = metres cubed cm ³ = centimetres cubed km ³ = kilometres cubed

MASS

Mass Mass is the amount of matter or material contained in an object and remains constant.

Formal units for measuring mass mg= milligrams g = grams kg = kilograms t = tonnes

Formal units for measuring mass mg= _______ __ = grams kg = ______ ___ = tonnes

Converting units of measurement 1000 mg = 1 g 1000 g = 1 kg 1000 kg = 1 t

Converting units of measurement 1000 mg = ___ g ____ g = 1 kg 1000 kg = ____ t

Convert these units of measurement 2500 mg = __ g ___ g = 4 kg 5.5 g = _____ mg 3300 kg = ____ t

Answer true or false to the statements below 500 mg < 0.5 g 250 g = 0.25 kg 1000 g < 10 kg 10 kg > 1 t
