In a Year 3 mathematics exercise from Max Maths, students are encouraged to practice their skills in converting measurements between different units of length, specifically centimetres, metres, and kilometres. The first task involves Toby, who is measuring the dimensions of his front door. Students are asked to find the height of the door by adding two centimetre measurements together and then converting the total into metres and centimetres. Similarly, they must find the width of the door in centimetres, starting from a measurement given in metres.

The 'Let's Practise' section provides a series of conversion exercises where students are required to switch between units. They convert given lengths from metres and centimetres to just centimetres, and then from centimetres to metres and centimetres, demonstrating their understanding of the relationship between these units. Additionally, they convert distances from kilometres to metres, applying their knowledge of how these larger units relate to each other. The workbook pages 160 to 168 are suggested for further practice. These activities are designed to build confidence in measurement conversion, an essential skill in both mathematics and real-life applications.
