Metric Length Conversion Worksheet
Plan a walking trail using metric lengths. Show your working and include units in every answer.
Know your units
Use these relationships throughout: 1 cm = 10 mm; 1 m = 100 cm; 1 km = 1,000 m.
1.A track marker is 80 mm long. How long is it in centimetres?
2.Complete the trail-planning conversion facts: 1.6 km = m; 3.4 m = cm; 75 cm = mm.
3.The first trail section is 2,450 m. Express this distance in kilometres.
4.A lookout platform is 1.85 m above the track. How many millimetres is that?
5.A route has three sections: 850 m, 1.2 km and 675 m. Find the total route length in metres and kilometres.
6.A supply rope is 5 m long. The team uses 185 cm. How much rope remains, in centimetres?
7.A 4.8 m board is cut into 6 equal pieces. What is the length of each piece in metres and centimetres?
8.Put these distances in order from shortest to longest: 920 mm, 0.95 m, 88 cm, 1.02 m. Use a common unit to compare them.
9.The map-free trail sign says the next shelter is 3.6 km away. Hana walks 2,450 m. How many metres are left?
10.A student says, “320 cm is the same as 3.2 m.” Is the statement true or false? Explain using a conversion.
11.Choose the most sensible estimate for the length of a walking track between two nearby parks: 750 mm, 750 cm, 750 m, or 750 km. Explain why the other scale choices do not fit.
