CCSS G5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement MG 1.1 Choose the appropriate tools and units (metric and U.S.)units andwithin a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions estimate and measure the length, liquid volume, and weight/mass in solving multi-step, real world problems. UNDERLYING SKILLS AND CONCEPTS: measure volume (metric units) of given objects. Estimate Volume in Liters and Milliliters a K ey Ide Volume (capacity) is the amount of space an object takes up. You can think about volume as the space inside a container. The metric system uses milliliters (mL) and liters (L) to measure liquid volume. Benchmarks for You 1 L 1,000 mL A liter is a little more than a quart. 1 liter is about 4 cups. 1 liter is about 1 quart. 1 milliliter is less than a teaspoon full.

A. milliliter B. millimeter C. liter D. kilometer To decide, look at the answer choices. Choices B and D measure length, not volume. Choice A is a tiny unit. So Choice C, liter, is the best unit of measure. page 306 Chapter 26 – Lesson 3 C – © CSL Associates, Inc. All rights reserved. Find 6 1,000.
