Understanding
Students understand that:
- Relationships among units within a system of measurement are multiplicative comparisons.
- The size of the unit of measurement and the number of units are inversely related.
- Addition and subtraction of measurements require measurements in the same unit and that the common unit is maintained in the answer.
