1 MEASUREMENTS U.S Distance inch is in. foot is ft. yard is yd. mile is mi ft. = 12 in yd. = 36 in./3 ft mi. = 5,280 ft. Metric Distance millimeter is mm. centimeter is cm. meter is m. kilometer is km cm. = 10 mm m. = 100 cm km = 1000 m. U.S. Weight ounce is oz. pound is lb. ton is t lb. = 16 oz t. = 2000 lb. Metric Weight grams is g. kilograms is kg.
2 1. 1 kg. = 1000 g. U.S. Capacity fluid ounce is fl. oz. cup is c. pint is pt. quart is qt. gallon is gal. 1. C. = 8 fl. oz pt. = 2 c qt. = 4 c gal. = 4 qt. Metric Capacity milliliters is ml/ml. liters is l/l Area 1. 1 L. = 1000 ml ml = 1 cup Acre is a. or ac ft. 2 = 144 in yd. 2 = 9 ft a. = 43,560 ft mi. 2 = 640 a. U.S. metric conversion Length 1. 1 in. = 2.54 cm. = 25.4mm 2. 1 m. = 3.28 ft m. = 1.09 yd.
3 4. 1 mi. = 1.61 km. Weight 1 oz. = g. 1 lb. = 454 g. 1 kg. = 2.2 lb. Capacity 1. 1 L. = 1.06 qt gal. = 3.79 L. Converting between units of measure normally involves multiplying or dividing the given unit of measure by the appropriate conversion number. 1. Convert 5 feet to inches. 5 feet times 12 inches/foot = 60 inches 2. Convert 18 quarts into gallons. 18 quarts divided by 4 quarts/gallon = 4 1/2 gallons. 3. Convert 87 inches to yards, feet, and inches. 87 inches divided by 36 inches/foot = 2 yards with 15 inches left over. 15 inches divided by 12 inches/foot = 1 foot with 3 inches left over Final answer: 87 inches = 2 yards, 1 foot, and 3 inches 4. Convert 1 mile into yards. 5,280 feet divided by 3 feet/yard = 1, 760 yards. 5. Convert 21 millimeters. to centimeters. 21 millimeters divided by 10millimeters/centimeter = 2.1 centimeters. 6. Convert 3 kilograms to grams. 3 kilograms times 1000 grams/kilogram = 3000 grams. 7. Convert 8 meters into feet. 8 meters times 3.28 feet/meter = feet

Express 80km/h in miles/hour. 44. Express 30 meters per second in feet per second. 45. Gasoline costs 78.5 cents per liter. What is the cost per gallon? Temperature Conversion To convert from Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature F = 9/5C + 32 To convert from Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius temperature C = 5/9(F 32) Let s convert 20 o C to Fahrenheit temperature. We will use the formula 9/5C + 32 First of all, we will multiply 20 by 9/5 which equals 36 o. Then we will add 32 to 36 to get 68. Final answer: 68 o F.
6 Now, let s convert 77 o F to Celsius temperature. We will use the formula C = 5/9(F-32). First of all, we will subtract 32 from 77 to get 45. Then we will multiply 45 by 5/9 to get 25. Final answer: 25 o C. Problems 1. Convert 55 o C to F o. 2. Convert 50 o F to C o. 3. Convert 131 o F to C o 4. Convert 70 o C to F o 5. Convert 40 o C to F o 6. Convert 86 o F to C o 7. Convert 41 o F to C o 8. Convert 0 o C to F o 9. Convert 15 o C to F o 10. Convert 167 o F to C o Clock Time 60 seconds = 1 minute 60 minutes = 1 hour 12 hours = 1 clock revolution 24 hours = 1 day 365 days = 1 normal year How many seconds are there in 8 minutes? 8 minutes times 60 seconds/minute = 480 seconds.
7 How many minutes are there in 3 hours? 3 hours times 6o minutes/hour = 180 minutes. How many hours are there in one week? 24 hours/day times 7 days = 168 hours If Joe left on a trip at 9:13AM and arrived at 2:47PM how long did the trip take? = 47, which is the number of minutes until the next full hour. 12:00 subtract 10:00 give us two more hours. From 12:00 until 2:47 is two hours and 47 minutes. 47 minutes + 2 hours + 2 hours and 47 minutes = 4 hours and 94 minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, 94 minutes = 1 hour and 34 minutes. Therefore the total time for Joe s trip is 5 hours and 34 minutes. Problems 1. Sally ran five trials of the 50 yard dash. Her times were 5.2 seconds, 5.3 seconds, 5.6 seconds, 5.2 seconds. And 5.7 seconds. What was her average speed? 2. When Pete started running a mile his watch read 4:11:53. When he finished his watch read 4:17:39. How long did it take for Pete to run one mile? 3.
