Metric Units of Capacity
Let’s warm up :
Estimate length of the following in meters:
1) 185 centimeters
1) 2 meters
2) 29 decimeters
2) 3 meters
3) Convert 900 centimeters to meters
3) 9 meters
4) Convert 5 kilometers to meters
4) 5,000 meters

Let’s review what we did in the previous chapter
Centimeters (cm), millimeters (mm),
decimeters (dm), and kilometers (km) are used
to measure length in the metric system.

Simple Conversion Tables
Metric Units of Length
10 millimeters (mm) = 1 centimeter (cm)
10 centimeters (cm) = 1 decimeter (dm)
100 centimeters = 1 meter (m)
1,000 meters = 1 kilometer (km)

Convert meters to millimeters
To change to a smaller unit, multiply.
Example: How many millimeters is 4 meters?
We are given,
4 meter = __ millimeter
4 x 1,000 = 4,000
4 meter = 4,000 millimeter
4 meter is equal to 4,000 millimeter .

Convert centimeters to meters
To change to a Larger unit, divide.
Example: How many meters is 500 centimeters ?
We are given,
500 centimeters = __ meters
500 ÷ 100 = 5
500 centimeters = 5 meters
500 centimeters is equal to 5 meters .

ESTIMATE: An answer that is close to the exact answer.
12 x 779 = 9,348
12 x 800 = 9,600
Estimate
Estimate and measure length
To estimate and measure length of an object:
 Use a centimeter ruler, meter stick or tape
measure to measure objects.
 Choose the appropriate Metric unit.
 Estimate the length to the nearest unit
with the help of the mark closest to the end
of the object.

Estimate length of 478 centimeters in meters
478 centimeters closest to 500 centimeters.
500 centimeters = 500 ÷ 100 meters
= 5 meters
So, the estimated length of 478 centimeters is 5 meters.
