Why do scientists need a standard system of measurements?. Remember that science must be . repeatable. – another scientist has to able to repeat your experiment using the same amounts, concentrations, lengths, weights, etc.. The properties of matter must be measured correctly and reported without ambiguity. . Value- A quantities description that includes both a number and a unit. Units- quantities defined by standards that people have agreed to use to compare one event/object to another. ~King Henry Died unexpectedly Drinking Chocolate Milk~. Unlike our .

All . variations of the units of measure are really just the units multiplied by powers of 10. . To convert a percent into a decimal we will move the decimal point 2 places to the left and drop the percent sign.. Example:. Write 45.3% as a decimal:. 45.3 ⇨ 4.53 ⇨ .453. Converting From. Course 1.

The metric system is a system of units for measurement developed in late 18th century France by the chemist Lavoisier to replace the disparate systems of measures then in use with a unified, natural and universal system. In the early metric system there were several fundamental or base units, the grad or grade for angles, the . Curriculum links. Adult Numeracy. MSS1/L1.7. .

Converting Metric Units • Length – Meters (m) • Mass – Grams (g) • Volume – Liters (L) – Cubic Meters (m 3 ) Metric Unit Prefixes Kilo – 1,000 Hecto – 100 Deka – 10 Base – 1 Kate Hall. Metric Units of Measurement. Length. Millimeter (mm) – 10 mm = 1 Centimeter. Centimeter (cm) – 100 centimeters = 1 meter. Decimeter (dm) – 1 decimeter = 10 centimeters. Meter (m) - 1 meter = 100 centimeters. 4 Learning Objective(s) Describe the general relationship between the U.S. customary units and metric units of length, weight/mass, and volume Define the metric prefixes and use them to perform
