Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key Metric Measures

Essential Question
How can you compare and convert metric units?
Answer:
To convert from one unit to another within the metric system usually means moving a decimal point. If you can remember what the prefixes mean, you can convert within the metric system relatively easily by simply multiplying or dividing the number by the value of the prefix.

Using a map, Alex estimates the distance between his house and his grandparent’s house to be about 15,000 meters. About how many kilometers away from his grandparent’s house does Alex live?
The metric system is based on place value. Length, capacity, and mass each have a base unit (meter, liter, or gram) and use prefixes to show the relationship between larger and smaller units.

One Way Conversions Convert 15,000 meters to kilometers.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key 1
Step 1
Find the relationship between the units.
There are 1,000 meters in 1 kilometer.
Step 2
Determine the operation to be used.
I am converting from a meter unit to a Kilometer unit, so I will divide.
Step 3
Convert

So,
Alex’s house is 15 kilometers from his grand parent’s house.

Answer:
The given chart is:

Now,
From the given chart,
We can observe that
The two units are: Kilogram and Gram
Now,
We know that,
The relationship between 2 units are:

Use a diagram.
Jamie made a bracelet 1.8 decimeters long. How many millimeters long is Jamie’s bracelet?

Convert 1.8 decimeters to millimeters.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key 3

Step 1
Show 1.8 decimeters.
Since the unit is decimeters, place the decimal point so that decimeters are the whole number unit.
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key 3

Step 2
Convert.
Cross out the decimal point and rewrite it so that millimeters will be the whole number unit. Write a zero to the left of the decimal point to complete the whole number.
So,
1 decimeter = 100 millimeters

Step 3
Record the value with the new unit.
1.8 dm = 180 mm
So,
Jamie’s bracelet is 180 millimeters long.

A.
Convert 247 milligrams to centigrams, decigrams, and grams.
Are the units being converted to a larger unit or a smaller unit?
Answer:
The units are being converted to a smaller unit

Should you multiply or divide to convert?
Answer:
You should divide to convert
Now,
247 mg ÷ 10 = 24.7 cg
247 mg ÷ 100 = 2.47 dg

H.O.T. Multi-Step Kelly plans to take juice on her camping trip. Which will hold more juice, 8 cans or 2 bottles? How much more?
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key 6
Answer:
It is given that
Kelly plans to take the juice on her camping trip
Now,
The given table is:
Texas Go Math Grade 5 Lesson 13.6 Answer Key 5
Now,
From the above,
We can observe that
The capacity of 1 can of juice is: 150 mL
The capacity of 1 bottle of juice is: 2 L
Now,
We know that,
1 L = 1,000 mL
So,
2 L = 2 × 1,000 mL
= 2,000 mL
So,
150 mL < 2,000 mL
Now,
The difference between the capacities of a can of juice and a bottle of the juice = 2,000 – 150
= 1,850 mL
Hence, from the above,
We can conclude that
1 bottle of juice will hold more juice
The bottle of juice holds 1,850 mL more than the can of the juice
