I. Background Information for Learners
What is measurement? MEASUREMENT is finding a number that shows the size or amount of
something. Converting between measurement units is a very important skill when working within and
between measurement systems. This problem-solving method is based on the principle that quantities are
defined as equalities.
A conversion factor is an expression for the relationship between units that is used to change the
units of a measured quantity without changing the value. A conversion ratio (or unit factor) always equals
one (1), where the numerator and the denominator have the same value expressed in different units.
A numerator represents the parts out of the whole or how much you have.
A denominator represents the total number of parts of the whole.
In this example of the common fraction ¾, 3 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator. Performing
the Mathematics calculation (3 divided by 4) transforms the number into a decimal fraction form, equals
0.75.
This method uses the fact that any number or expression can be multiplied by "one" without changing its
value. This allows the conversion of units by multiplying the initial measurement by one (or more) forms of
the number 1. While the multiplication by 1 does not change the value of the measurement, it does change
the measurement units.

CONVERTING UNIT OF MEASURE

CONVERSION TABLE
ENGLISH SYSTEM METRIC SYSTEM
1 foot = 12 inches 1 cm = 10mm
1 yard = 3 feet or 36 inches 1 m = 100cm
1 mile = 5,280 feet 1 m = 1,000 mm

ENGLISH SYSTEM TO METRIC SYSTEM

1 inch = 25.4 mm
1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 inch = 0.0254 m

UNIT CONVERSION PROCESS

UNITY BRACKETS METHOD of unit conversion consists of a fraction in which the denominator
is equal to the numerator, but they are in different units. Because of the identity property of multiplication,
the value of a quantity will not change if it is multiplied by one. Also, if the numerator and denominator of a
fraction are equal, then the fraction is equal to one. So, if the numerator and denominator of the fraction are
equivalent, they will not affect the value of the measured quantity.
 EXAMPLE: 1. 3feet ------ m sol. 3ft x 12 inches x 0.0254 m = 0.9144 m
1 foot 1 inch

980 inches -- cm sol. 980 inches x 2.54 cm = 2,489 cm

1 Inch

2. 294 inches----------- mm
294 inches x 25.4 mm = 7,467.6 mm
1inch

3. 39.3 inches ---------- cm

39.3 inches x 2.54 cm = 99.822 cm
1inch

4. 20 feet ------------ m
20 feet x 12 inches x 0.0254 m = 6.096 m
1-foot 1inch
