h Measuring units of weights are g and kg. Same more units of measurements are as follows:
Small weights are measured in g and large weights Length
are measured in kg. Inch, Foot, Yard
1 inch = 2.54 cm, 1 foot = 12 inches
h Measuring units of capacity are mL and L.
1 yard = 36 inches
Small capacity are measured in mL and large Weight
capacity are measured in L. Ounce, Pound, Ton

h Convert : 11 L 585 mL into L. Weight of fruits Ravi bought
11 L 585 mL = 11 L + 585 mL = 3 kg 315 g = 3.315 kg

Quantity of water in tank = 15000 L
both clothes are:
18 m 50 cm + 15 m 20 cm Quantity of water each student drinks in 1 day
= 18.50 m + 15.20 m = 5000 mL = 5 L
= 33.70 m or 33 m 70 cm Number of students in college = 800

did Rohit buy than Ravi?
Weight of fruits Rohit bought So, amount of water left in the tank
= 4 kg 520 g = 4.520 kg = (15000 – 4000) L = 11000 L

4.4 TIME the number of hours by 60.

Conversion of Time For example : How many minutes does 8 hours
have?
h Days into Hours : There are 24 hours in a day. So,
to convert days into hours multiply the number 8 hours = (8 × 60) minutes = 480 minutes
of days by 24. h Minutes into Hours : To convert minutes into
For example : Convert 8 days into hours. hours, divide the number of hours by 60.
8 days = (24 × 8) hours = 192 hours For example : Convert 240 minutes into hours.
h Hours into Days : To convert hours into days, 240 minutes = (240 ÷ 60) hours = 4 hours
divide the number of hours by 24.
For example : How many days will have 48 hours? Olympiad Bite
48 hours = (48 ÷ 24) days = 2 days

Also, X + Y + Z = 920 mL = 21800 – Weight of 60 apples
X = 21800 – (60 × 350) = 21800 – 21000 = 800 g
⇒ X + + X – 20 = 920 (ii) Weight of (basket + 18 apples) = 800 + (18 × 350)
