Length, weight and capacity — Maths worksheet

We measure length in centimetres, metres and kilometres, weight in grams and kilograms, and liquids in millilitres and litres. To change a big unit into a small one, multiply: 2 m = 200 cm. To change a small unit into a big one, divide: 3000 g = 3 kg.

The method

Big unit to small: multiply — “1 m = 100 cm; 1 kg = 1000 g; 1 L = 1000 mL; 1 km = 1000 m”

  1. 1 m = 100 cm, 1 km = 1000 m, 1 kg = 1000 g, 1 L = 1000 mL.
  2. Big unit → small unit: multiply. Small unit → big unit: divide.
  3. 2 m 35 cm = 200 cm + 35 cm = 235 cm.
  4. Choose the unit by size: a pencil in cm, a road in km, a toffee in g, a bucket of water in L.

Use it for: Measuring ribbons and rooms, reading weights on packets, cooking, and the measurement chapter of Class 3 maths.

Worked example: 2 m 35 cm = ? cm → 235

  1. 2 m = 200 cm.
  2. 200 + 35 = 235.

Check: 235 cm = 2 m and 35 cm left over ✓
