Grade 5 Problems on Measurement

Step 1: Recall the conversion factor between meters and centimeters: 1 meter = 100 centimeters.

Step 2: Convert the meters part to centimeters. Multiply the number of meters by 100. 5 meters = $5 \times 100$ centimeters.

Step 3: Calculate the centimeters from the meters: $5 \times 100 = 500$ centimeters.

Step 4: Add the additional centimeters given in the problem to the converted centimeters. Total centimeters = 500 centimeters + 75 centimeters.

Step 5: Calculate the total: $500 + 75 = 575$ centimeters.

Step 6: Therefore, 5 meters and 75 centimeters is equal to 575 centimeters.

Step 1: Add the grams separately and the kilograms separately.

Step 2: Add the grams: 500 g + 750 g = 1250 g.

Step 3: Convert the grams to kilograms and grams. Recall that 1 kg = 1000 g. 1250 g = 1000 g + 250 g = 1 kg 250 g.

Step 4: Add the kilograms: 2 kg + 3 kg = 5 kg.

Step 5: Add the converted kilograms from the grams (1 kg) to the sum of the original kilograms. Total kilograms = 5 kg + 1 kg = 6 kg.

Step 6: Combine the total kilograms and the remaining grams. The sum is 6 kg 250 g.

Step 1: Subtract the milliliters separately and the liters separately.

Step 2: Subtract the milliliters: 500 ml - 200 ml = 300 ml.

Step 3: Subtract the liters: 3 liters - 1 liter = 2 liters.

Step 4: Combine the results from the liters and milliliters subtraction. The difference is 2 liters 300 ml.

Note: If the milliliters in the first number were smaller than the milliliters in the second number, you would need to borrow 1 liter (1000 ml) from the liters before subtracting the milliliters.
