Measuring Objects

Measurement Units kilogram milliliter pound gram gallon kilometer yard quart centimeter millimeter meter foot liter mile ounce cup pint inch

Length Use a ruler, yard stick, or meter stick to measure length. Measure the red line to the nearest sixteenth inch. Line up the left end of the object with a mark on the ruler. Find the mark on the ruler that is closest to the right end of the object. Subtract the two measurements to find the length of the object. Left end of red line: 1/2 inch Right end of red line: 2 15/16 inches The red line is 2 7/16 inches long. Metric Units millimeter (mm) 1 centimeter (cm) = 10 millimeters 1 meter (m) = 100 centimeters 1 kilometer (km) = 1,000 meters Customary Units inch (in.) 1 foot (ft.) = 12 inches 1 yard (yd.) = 3 feet 1 mile (mi.) = 5,280 feet

Measuring Length Measure the blue line in inches to the nearest sixteenth inch. Measure the green line to the nearest millimeter.

Measuring Length Measure the blue line in inches to the nearest sixteenth inch. 3 11/16 in. Measure the green line to the nearest millimeter. 80 mm

Use a scale to measure the weight (mass) of objects. Place the object on the scale. Read the scale to the nearest ounce, pound, gram, or kilogram. Use a scale to measure the weight (mass) of objects. 6 3 9 4 5 2 1 11 10 8 7 grams Metric Units gram (g) kilogram (kg) = 1,000 grams Customary Units ounce (oz.) pound (lb.) = 16 ounces ton (t.) = 2,000 pounds This scale measures in grams. Read the dial on the scale to find the weight (mass) of the pencil to the nearest gram.

Measure capacity to find the amount a container holds. Find the mark on the container that is closest to the level of the liquid. Read the mark to the nearest unit. Measure capacity to find the amount a container holds. This graduated cylinder is measured in milliliters. Each mark is 1 milliliter. There are 4 milliliters of water in the graduated cylinder. Metric Units milliliter (mL) 1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters Customary Units cup (c.) 1 pint (pt.) = 2 cups 1 quart (qt.) = 2 pints 1 gallon (gal.) = 4 quarts 5 mL 10 mL 15 mL 20 mL
