I. (UNIT OF MEASURES) - LINEAR MEASUREMENT
ENGLISH METRIC - meter
Yard ( yd ) decimeter 1/10 meter
Foot ( ft ) / („ ) centimeter 1/ 100 meter
Inch (in. ) / (“ ) millimeter 1 /1000 meter

II. READING OF MEASUREMENTS


A. Reading the inch The inch is divided into segments called
graduations. Each graduation represents a measurement in form of a
proper fraction. The inch can be divided into 16, 8, 4 and 2, equal
parts.
B. Reading the centimeter and millimeter

II. CONVERTING FRACTION TO DECIMAL


In converting fractions to decimals, divide the numerator by its
denominator whether it is proper, improper or mixed fraction.
IV. CONVERTING UNITS OF MEASURE
GUIDE TABLE IN UNIT CONVERSION
English to English 1 foot = 12 inches
Metric to Metric 1 meter = 10 decimeter
1 dm = 10 centimeter
English to Metric 1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 inch = 25.4 mm
1 foot = 30.48 cm
Metric to English 1 meter = 3.28 feet
1 meter = 39.37 inches
Sample Solutions in Conversion
A. Foot to inches 3 ft = _________ inches
Solution: Multiply 3ft by 12 inches / ft = 36 inches
B. Inch to feet 48 inches = ________ Feet
Solution: Divide 48 inches by 12 inches / feet = 4feet
C. Centimeter to millimeter 22 cm = ________ millimeters
Solution: Multiply 22 cm by 10 mm / cm = 220mm
D. Inch to centimeter 6 inches = _______ centimeter
Solution: Multiply 6 inches by 2.54 cm / inch = 15.24 cm
CALCULATING BOARDFOOT OF LUMBER
Although the International System (SI) or Metric System had already superseded
the English System of measure, the board foot as a unit of measure for
determining the volume of lumber is still being used by the furniture & cabinet
maker and construction industry. This is because lumbers are sold in terms of
board foot. A board foot is actually one square foot of lumber of one inch thick.
The formula used in computing board foot is:

Board foot (Bd. Ft.) = T x W x L 12 Where: T = Thickness


in inches W= Width in inches L = Length in feet

Note: This formula is being used for sawed wood of


commercial dimension.

Example: Compute the board foot of lumber whose


dimension is 2” x 4 ”x 12 “
Step 1. Identify the given data Given. T = 2” W = 4” L = 12‟

Step 2. Determine what is being asked Find the Bd. Ft. = ?


Step 3. State the formula

Formula: Bd. Ft. = T x W x L /12

Step 4. Substitute the given data in the formula, then solve.

Solution: Bd. Ft. = T x W x L / 12


= 2” x 4” x 12 “ / 12
= 96/12
= 8 Bd. Ft.
Application: In a 1 whole sheet of paper work
together with your boat. All members must
contribute. Show your solution.
1. 3”x6”x18” 2. 5”x5”x10” 3. 4”x4’x18
4. ¾ = 5. ½ = 6. ¼ = 7. 5/8 =
8. 5 ft = _____inch
9. 60 inch =_____feet
10.10 inch = _____centimeter
