  1. Length in the Customary System

  2. Customary Units of Length 12 inches = 1 foot 3 feet = 1 yard 36 inches = 1 yard 5280 feet = 1 mile 1760 yards = 1 mile

  3. Customary Units of Length To change larger units to smaller units, multiply. Use a bridge map to help make the conversions.

  4. Bridge Map as (just like) Relating factor

  5. Customary Length Conversion Examples: 1 ft = 12 in 48 4 ft = _____ in 4 x 12 = 48 1 ft 4 ft as 12 in (just like) 48 in is equal to Relating factor X 12

  6. Customary Length Conversion Examples: 1 yd = 3ft 4 yd 2 ft = ___ft 14 4 x 3 = 12 + 2 = 14 1 yd 4 yd 2 ft as 3 ft (just like) 14 ft is equal to Relating factor X 3 and + 2

  7. Customary Units of Length To change smaller units to larger units, divide. Use a bridge map to help make the conversions.

  8. Bridge Map as (just like) Relating factor

  9. Customary Length Conversion Examples: 1 ft = 12 in 6 72 in = _____ ft 72 ÷ 12 = 6 1 ft 6 ft as 12 in (just like) 72 in is equal to Relating factor ÷ 12

  10. Customary Length Conversion Examples: 3 ft = 1yd 82 246 ft = _____ yd 246 ÷ 3 = 82 3 ft 246 ft as 1 yd (just like) 82 yd is equal to Relating factor ÷ 3
