T.i.P.S.

  • Lightbulb Students should use their previous knowledge of converting within measurement systems using proportions and unit rates. Conversions include both customary and metric systems involving length, mass, capacity when given the relationship between the two units. A ratio can be used to compare the measures of two different units, such as inches per foot, milliliters per liter and centimeters per inch. Students use ratios as conversion factors and the identity property for multiplication to convert ratio units.

Example
