Metric units


What is distance?

Distance measures length. For example, the distance of a snake is how long the snake is.

In the metric system of measurement, the most common units of distance are millimeters, centimeters, meters, and kilometers.

How big are metric units of distance?

A paper clip is about 1 millimeter thick.

A fingernail is about 1 centimeter wide.

The length of a guitar is about 1 meter.

A kilometer is equal to 1000 meters.

Converting larger units to smaller units

1 centimeter=10 millimeters

1 meter=100 centimeters

1 meter=1,000 millimeters
1 kilometer=1,000 meters

To convert larger units to smaller units we multiply the number of larger units by the green conversion factor for the appropriate smaller units.

Example: Converting meters to centimeters:

1 meter=100 centimeters
11 meters=11×100=1100 centimeters

Equivalent fractions


  • Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show exactly the same amount.
    Equivalent fractions
  • You can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number.
    Making equivalent fractions using multiplcation
  • You can simplify fractions by dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number. This is called cancelling.
    Sometimes fractions will cancel more than once.
