Converting and Comparing Units of Length - Worksheet

The "Converting and Comparing Units of Length" worksheet is a comprehensive resource designed to help students understand and practice converting between different units of length. The first section focuses on converting millimetres to centimetres and vice versa, with examples such as 30 mm to centimetres and 45 cm to millimetres. It then progresses to conversions between centimetres and metres, and metres to kilometres, challenging students to apply their knowledge to various measurements, including 600 cm to metres and 4000 m to kilometres.

The second part of the worksheet, titled "Measuring Length Worksheet", includes a set of problems that require students to convert between mm, cm, m, and km. Students are also asked to compare lengths and determine which is longer, offering practical examples such as deciding whether 84 cm is longer than 850 mm. Additionally, real-world problems are presented, such as calculating the difference in distances travelled by a snail and a worm, or comparing the lengths of two chocolate bars. This worksheet is an excellent tool for enhancing students' measurement skills and their ability to compare and understand different units of length in a variety of contexts.
