hi!!! I bought your book because here in the USA we learn the imperial system. Anyway, I'm having trouble with a problem. The book is measurement units and conversions. it's an elementary book (yes, but I didn't learn metrics) anyway, the question is "a large apple weighs 0.18 kg. Joe ate 3/4 of it. How many grams of the apple did Joe eat. I think I'm going about doing it wrong. Like what method do I use to figure it out? Thanks
5 mm = 0.5 cm = 0.2 inches = 3/16 inches go here when you need to learn more to be ahead of the class. p.s. this is not cheating, this is learning at the sub [ otonic ] level.
the video is done on a metric table. . . not an S.A.E. table. ( standard american european . . . standard american measurements ) or SAE stands for the Society of Automotive Engineers and refers in this case to tools whose size is marked and aligned with fractions of an inch, eg. 3/8". This is as opposed to metric tools which are measured in millimetres.
For distances: Centimeters (cm) and Millimeters (mm) outdoor and construction maybe also Meters (m) For Volume: Liters (L) and Milliliters (ml) For weight: Kilogramms (k) and Gramms (g) In Traffic: Kilometers (km) and Meters (m) Everything else like hecto, deka, deci and also tons are not used at all in every day live. This should be mentioned in school but it should never be part of a test.
Millimeter to km:-(1 km is 1 million millimeter) ~2.4 km = 2.4 million millimeter. ~51.6 km = 51.6 million millimeter. ~0.0065 km = 6500 millimeter. ~0.058 km = 58000 millimeter.
I was looking for metrics in the sense of a distance function on a set and ive stumbled upon this random video of a european lady (german i think) with a mammoth on her shoulder...
Nobody uses the term "kiloliter". That would be highly confusing as kilo is associated with the kilogram. A thousand liters is a cubic meter though we her call it just a cubic/cube.
It's true people don't use that term, but technically speaking "kiloliter" is correct. There are quite a few terms in the metric system that are not in common usage... e.g. hectometer or megagram or megaliter or gigavolt etc etc! It's just a system where you can put any of those prefixes on any of the basic units.
I totally agree with that. There are a lot of combinations that are not in practical use. But to explain that on a relatively early level would only make it unnecessary complicated. When it comes to weight we normally use grams and kg. The Mg is not in use, that is called "t" (=metric tonne but normally metric is not mentioned). As 1to is already heavy weight there are hardly ever suffixes added except when talking about nuclear weapons where kt, Mt and Gt are possible. In Germany the pound is still in use (1Pfund = 500g) especially when it comes to food but you will not find it in any official document. Same with the "Zentner Ztr = 100pounds = 50kg" which is often used in spoken but seldom in written language and never in official documents. The situation becomes a bit strange when it comes to the "Doppelzentner = 2Ztr = 100kg" which carries the unit "dt" (yes, it is a dezi tonne!) but I never heard anybody pronounce it as dezi tonne. You are also right with "GV = Giga Volts" simply because such voltages have never been observed. Technical use normally ends at kV. We use ml (=cm³) for small amounts of liquid, sometimes cl but mostly l (=dm³) but when it comes to higher amounts we switch to cubic meters (m³, somtimes written as "cbm"). It is helpful that dezi³ = 10³= 1000, so one m³ = 1000dm³ = 1000l. I guess that is already confusing enough :-) and I should end that now...
Please teachers make it simple as Sesame street by explaining it like this : The US is ALREADY metric !! You just call it DOLLAR !! Metric is as easy as your MONEY !! Here we go: 1 Dollar = 100 cents ....so now you know metric , wow that was easy isn't it ??!! Here we go: 1 Meter = 100 centimeter. Just replace Dollar for meter..... and done. Make it smaller: 1 meter = 1000 millimeter Make it bigger: 1 KILO meter = 1000 meter. Just add "kilo" and remove "milli". Make it even more easy to visualize: 1 kilometer is about 10 American football fields long. ;-) Same is for volume, weight and temperature. A cubic shape of 10x10x10 centimeter makes a volume of 1 liter and 1 liter water weighs 1 kilo. A cubic shape of 1x1x1 meter makes 1 cubic meter. 1 cubic meter makes a volume of 1000 liter, or filled with water 1000 kilo or 1 ton. Make it even more easy to visualize: a Ford F150 pickup truck weighs 2500 kilo (or 2,5 ton) Water freezes at 0 degree Celsius and boils at 100 degree Celsius. If the weatherman says a number with a - minus , you know it's cold . -10 is very cold and +30 is perfect beach weather. So how easy was this to understand ?!!
So cute. 1 of those teachers you never forget as a child as well as being very good at teaching the metric system to anyone looking to learn
Thankyou ma'am 😊.you really made it easy to understand .I liked your way of teaching .We want more vedios on different maths concepts .
I really love the video as it helps me greatly in the clinical calculation. Thank you very much.
You are such an excellent teacher! Thank you
You explained it so well and made this concept very easy to understand..thanks a ton
If my math teacher had been someone like you, this subject must have been a easy one.
Finallyyy finallyyyy i learnt this💛
Owsom mam u cleared my confusion
Thank I am from India love from all India
I would love if you can please explain the last table you did of converting the different units. 🙏🙏
awesome video !!
truely remarkable teaching !!!

0.18kg=180g
3/4of 180
135g
I like your video so much that is helping me keep it up👍
Very good. I suggest you use colour for the solution so that can easily see it.
I would be great if you would have also mentioned how are you moving on decimal for children to understand better
thanyou teacher
i fell very problem in the conversion of units.
but when i gave your lecture then my problem finish.
thankyou sooooooo much
This is great. I love the little mammoth on her shoulder too
Thank you madam, you are a good teacher
The mammoth on your shoulder was very cute and I liked your video so much .
Thank you
You teach in such a simple manner
Thank you madam ....... helpful video
Nice class 🙏
you really helped me from failing my final exam on chemistry :)
Thank you so much!
why do you write deca with a k ? isn't it decameter ?
Either spelling is fine in American English. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decametre
After tera- (trillion 1*10^12) followed by peta- (quadrillion 1*10^15), exa- (quintillion 1*10^18), zetta- (sextillion 1*10^21), yotta- (septillion 1*10^24), xenna- (octillion 1*10^27), weka- (nonillion 1*10^30), vendeka- (decillion 1*10^33), udeka- (undecillion 1*10^36), tradeka- (duodecillion 1*10^39), sorta- (tredecillion 1*10^42), rinta- (quattuordecillion 1*10^45), quexa- (quindecillion 1*10^48), pepta- (sexdecillion 1*10^51), ocha- (sepdecillion 1*10^54), nena- (octdecillion 1*10^57)
It helps me thx
Thanks got a 100 on my test :)
Thankyou mam this helps very much
Raju maths text book is 11mm and science test book is 1cm? convert mm into cm
PLEASE GIVE THE ANSWER
Since 10 mm makes 1 cm, this means that 11 mm is 1 cm + 1 mm.
IT IS VERY GOOD I GOT A+IN A EXAM
🥰🎊🌹tq mam🦄
Mam already metric measurement you speak
Thanks so much mam because in my test I got full marks
the writing on board on phone is so micro tiny cant see the board
a laptop?
Your good
Great explanation
A good teacher
Hi mam I really like your video so much
thank you very much maam, i have finals tomorrow and this helps a lot
Ours is like 5mm=_______in
And I Don't Get It.
We solve it like 5mm(------) and so on
2.54 cm equals 1 inch, and 2.2 pounds equals 1 kg - you can take it from there.....
5 mm = 0.5 cm = 0.2 inches = 3/16 inches
go here when you need to learn more to be ahead of the class.
p.s.
this is not cheating, this is learning at the sub [ otonic ] level.
Thank you mam
Nice teaching.
thanks you helped me a lot
Ur video is best 🤗😃
thanks teacher
In metric countries, few people use prefixes other than micro, milli, kilo, and mega. The others are superfluous.
:-) there is an extra base unit.. every American will understand the US $. It counts the same as all the other metric units.
thank you
You are Great! Thank You!!!!!
V. V. Good video
good job
Where is the inches?
the video is done on a metric table. . . not an S.A.E. table. ( standard american european . . . standard american measurements ) or SAE stands for the Society of Automotive Engineers and refers in this case to tools whose size is marked and aligned with fractions of an inch, eg. 3/8".

Very help full mam
For distances:
Centimeters (cm) and Millimeters (mm) outdoor and construction maybe also Meters (m)
For Volume:
Liters (L) and Milliliters (ml)
For weight:
Kilogramms (k) and Gramms (g)
In Traffic:
Kilometers (km) and Meters (m)
Everything else like
hecto, deka, deci and also tons are not used at all in every day live. This should be mentioned in school but it should never be part of a test.
It helps a lot
Nice
Really helpful
very helpful to me ,thanks
Why so complicated? All you have to know is 1 Meter has got 100 cm.10 cm in a cube is 1 Liter and that weighs (filled with water) 1 Kilogramm.
Good
beautiful
Millimeter to km:-(1 km is 1 million millimeter)
~2.4 km = 2.4 million millimeter. ~51.6 km = 51.6 million millimeter. ~0.0065 km = 6500 millimeter. ~0.058 km = 58000 millimeter.

I’m in grade 5 and I’m learning this
Me too
Thanks
Ok thank you mam but it is not clear

So how easy was this to understand ?!!
This is kinda helping
Thanks mam
got a a in my test
Thanks so much
lost me the second half
Thanks a lot
What a megalitre
I think,its not dekameter its decameter spelling..............
Thank you
