Measurement Hunt Worksheet
Help prepare a pop-up market stall. Solve each measurement challenge using metric units. For the hands-on hunt, use safe objects you can access and record your own results; suggested answers are provided for the number problems.
Plan the hunt
Choose suitable measuring tools and estimate before measuring.
1.Nathan needs to measure the length of a ribbon for the stall, about 1.4 m long. Which tool is the best choice?
- A 15 cm ruler
- A tape measure
- Kitchen scales
- A measuring jug
2.A bundle of herbs has a mass of 0.75 kg. Write this mass in grams.
3.The drink dispenser holds 3 L of lemonade. How many 250 mL cups can be filled?
4.A market table is 120 cm long. Convert its length to metres.
5.The stall opens at 9:15 am. Setting up takes 45 minutes. What time should setup finish?
Measure and compare
Use a ruler, tape measure, scales or measuring jug where available. Record units clearly.
6.Find a safe object near you that is about 10 cm long. Write its name and measure its length to the nearest centimetre.
7.Find a container that holds more than 1 L. Record what it is and its labelled or measured capacity in litres or millilitres.

9.A market sign is 85 cm wide. Another sign is 1 m wide. Which sign is wider, and by how many centimetres?
