Measuring Length Area Volume
A community garden is being planned. Solve each measurement challenge using metric units. Show your working where needed. Remember: 1 m = 100 cm, 1 m² = 10,000 cm², 1 L = 1,000 mL, and 1 m³ = 1,000 L.
Choose and convert units
Make sensible choices for the garden plan.
1.The whole garden is 18 m long. Which unit is most suitable for recording its length? Choose one.
- millimetres (mm)
- centimetres (cm)
- metres (m)
- kilometres (km)
2.A seedling is 24 cm tall. How many millimetres tall is it?
3.A garden hose is 3.6 m long. Convert its length to centimetres.
4.The water butt holds 2,750 mL. Write this amount in litres.
Measure area
The garden beds are rectangular. Use area = length × width.
5.A vegetable bed is 4 m long and 2.5 m wide. Find its area in square metres.
6.A square herb patch has sides of 300 cm. Convert the side length to metres, then find its area in square metres.
7.Which has the greater area: a 5 m by 3 m bed, or a 4 m by 4 m bed? Show both areas to justify your answer.
Work out volume
For a rectangular box, volume = length × width × height. One cubic metre holds 1,000 litres.
8.A rectangular water tank is 2 m long, 1 m wide and 1 m high. Find its volume in cubic metres, then convert it to litres.
9.A planter box measures 80 cm long, 50 cm wide and 40 cm deep. Calculate its volume in cubic centimetres.
10.True or false? A tank with a volume of 3 m³ can hold 3,000 L. Explain your choice with a conversion.
11.A smooth stone is lowered into a measuring jug. The water level rises from 450 mL to 620 mL. What is the stone’s volume in millilitres?
