Example Question #2 :Convert Among Different Sized Standard Measurement Units: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Md.A.1

How many feet are in $72\ inches?$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ foot=12\ inches$ , and we can usehas our unknown.

$\frac{1\ foot}{12\ inches}=\frac{x\ feet}{72\ inches}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate theon one side.

$12\ inches\times x\ feet= 1\ foot \times 72\ inches$

$6\ feet= \frac{1\ foot \times 72\ inches}{12\ inches}$

The $\yards$ $\ inches$ will cancel and we are left with $6\ feet$

Example Question #3 :Convert Among Different Sized Standard Measurement Units: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Md.A.1

How many meters are in $6\ centimeters?$

Possible Answers:

600

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ centimeter= .01\ meters$ and we can useas our unknown.

$\frac{1\ centimeter}{.01\ meter}=\frac{6\ centimeters}{x\ meters}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate the on one side.

$1\ centimeter\times x\ meters=.01\ meter\times 6\ centimeters$

$x\ meters=\frac{.01\ meter\times 6\ centimeters}{1\ centimeter}$

The centimeters will cancel and we are left with $.06\ meters$
