Converting and Comparing Units of Volume - Worksheet

The "Converting and Comparing Units of Volume" worksheet is a resourceful tool for students to practice their skills in converting between millilitres and litres, as well as comparing different volumes. The first section of the worksheet asks students to convert given volumes from millilitres to litres, with examples such as converting 3000 ml to litres and 450 ml to litres. This section helps students understand the relationship between the two units and how to scale down from a smaller to a larger unit of measurement.

The subsequent section flips the task, requiring students to convert from litres to millilitres. This includes straightforward conversions like 6 litres to millilitres and more challenging ones involving decimal values, such as 3.7 litres to millilitres. Further exercises on the worksheet include comparing pairs of volumes to identify which is larger and solving real-world problems, such as determining how much more water is needed to fill a bucket to its capacity or calculating the original volume of milk in a carton after a spill. The worksheet is designed to enhance students' numerical fluency and their ability to apply mathematical concepts to practical situations.
