Measurement Foundations Worksheet
A community market is setting up in a rectangular 12 m by 8 m space. Solve the measurement challenges using metric units. Show working where you can, and include units in every answer.
Choose and convert units
Use the market plan context to make sensible measurement choices.
1.A stall table is 1.8 m long. Convert its length to centimetres.
2.A crate has a mass of 2.35 kg. Write this mass in grams.
3.A drink dispenser contains 4.5 L of juice. How many millilitres is this?
4.A delivery van travels 0.75 km from the entrance to the market site. Convert this distance to metres.
Measure the space
The market site is 12 m long and 8 m wide.
5.Calculate the perimeter of the rectangular site. Include the correct unit.
6.Calculate the area of the site in square metres.
7.A rectangular water tank measures 1.2 m long, 0.8 m wide and 0.5 m high. Find its volume in cubic metres, then convert it to litres. (1 m³ = 1000 L.)
Plan smartly
Use the information below to advise the market organiser.
Stall A 2 m × 1.5 m
Stall B 2.5 m × 2 m
Stall C 3 m × 1 m
8.Find the area of Stall A, Stall B and Stall C.
9.The organiser has 12 m² of floor covering. Is this enough to cover all three stalls? Show your calculation and explain.
10.The organiser estimates that the site has an area of 20 m² because 12 + 8 = 20. Explain the mistake and give the correct area.
11.A stallholder buys 3.6 kg of apples and packs them equally into 8 bags. How many grams of apples go in each bag?
12.A market walkway is 1.5 m wide. Which is the most suitable unit for recording its width: millimetres, metres or kilometres? Explain briefly.
