This map is a detailed description of the use of measurments in mathematics.
Distance
in, ft, yds, miles
Volume
cups, pints, quarts, gallons
weight
oz, lbs, tons
Time is always measured the same while using the metric and standard systems. Ex. seconds, minutes, hours, days
Distance is closely related to time. How fast does a car go?Miles / hour. distanc/rate=time
Rate
Rate = distance x time Rate = How fast the object is moving.Distance = How far away something is or how far you have traveled. Time = How long it took you.
aThe United States is the only industrialized nation not to adopt the metric system, as its primary measuring system.
distance
mm, cm, m, km
Volume
Remember when finding the volume of someething your answer is always cubed. Example. cm^3
ml, L, Kl
Weight
mg, g, kg
comparing your weight in the metric system is a lot easier than using the standard system.a person weighs 100kg 100000g 100000000mgmetric system deals with power of tena person weghs 100lbs 16000 ozs standard system uses randon conversion numbers that make little sense.
