  8. Customary Units of Liquid Measure 1 Gallon = 4 quarts 8 pints 16 cups 1 Quart = 2 pints 4 cups 1 liter is a little more than 1 quart

  9. Customary Units of Liquid Measure About how many liters would equal 1 gallon? • Between 3 and 4

  10. Customary and Metric Units of Measure • Liquids such as water, soft drinks, and fuel are often measured in liters (L). • Smaller amounts of liquids are often measured in milliliters (mL). • 1 L = 1000 mL

  11. Apply what you learned • Open your math journal to page 335. • Read the top of the page. • What is the difference between the measurement of a cubic centimeter and a milliliter? • How many cubic centimeters will equal 1 mL?

  12. Apply what you learned Complete problems 2, 3 & 4 with a partner.

  13. Think and Complete MJ 336 • a meter is used to measure distance • a liter is used to measure liquid capacity • a gram is used to measure weight

  14. Now you need to open to MJ 337 • For this assignment, you will need worksheet 119, your scissors, and tape. • Use the grid paper to find the dimensions and volume of the box. • Follow the directions as I demonstrate.
