Customary Units of Capacity and Weight

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Six straightforward word problems require learners to use customary units of capacity (pints, quarts, cups, gallons) on this assignment. In order to answer each question, they must write an explanation in the form of a mathematical sentence. Lines are provided for them to work out the problem, and an equivalency chart for capacity is also present. Note that although the title mentions weight as a property, the questions all pertain only to capacity or volume.
