4.2) Operations on measurement of length
Addition In addition, always add the measurements having the same units together. Example 1: Add 8 km 234 m and 1 km 8 m. Addition with conversion Addition without conversion Convert the lengthto the smaller unit. Arrange the measurements in columns according totheir unitsand add. 1 km = 1,000 m 8 km 234 m = 8,000 m + 23 m = 8,234 m km m 1km 8 m = 1,000 m + 8 m= 1,008 m 008 234 Convert 9242 m into 1 8234 m + 1 O08 km and m. + 1008 m 2 42 9242 m =9242 + 1000 =9 km 242 m 9242 m Answer:9 km 242 m Subtraction Example 2: Subtract 4 m 36 cm from 56 m 52 cm. Subtraction with conversion 56 m 52 cm - 4 m 36 cm 5652 436 Convert the length to the smaller unit. =5,652 cm - 436 cm =5,216 cm 5216 1m= 100 cm Convert from cm to m. 4m 36 cm = 400cm + 36 cm= 436 cm 1 cm = 1+ 100m 56 m 52 cm = 56 x 100 cm + 52 cm =5216 cm = 5216 + 100 m = 52 m 16 cm =5,600 cm + 52 cm = 5,652 cm 67
