Temperature
The metric unit for Temperature is...
degrees Celsius
How many ounces (oz) are in 2 pounds (lbs)?
32
How many grams are in 48 kg?
48,000 grams
1 ton (t)= 2000 lbs
1 tonne (tn)= 1000 kg
1 bushel = _______ gallons
8
When solving for degrees Fahrenheit, the first step, according to BEDMAS, is to...
F = 9/5 x C + 32
multiply 9/5 x degrees Celsius
How many oz are in 1 ton?
32,000 oz (1 ton = 2000 lbs = 32,000 oz)
How many grams are in 1 tonne?
1,000,000 g
(1 tonne= 1000 kg 1 kg= 1000g 1000x1000)
A 10 kg bag of flour weighs how many pounds?
22.1 lbs
(1 kg to 2.21 lb = 10 kg to 22.1 lbs)
How many cubed inches are equivalent to 1 bushel?
2220 in^3
When solving for degrees Celsius, according to BEDMAS, the first step is to...
C = 5/9 (F - 32)
solve inside my brackets first (F - 32)
3.1 tons (6200 / 2000 = 3.1)
How many tonnes (tn) are in 1352 kg?
1.352 tn
(1352 / 1000)
How many tons (imperial) are in 1 tonne (metric)?
1.10 tons
(1 tonne = 1000 kg = 2210 lbs / 2000 = 1.10 tons) OR look at the conversion on your formula sheet :)
The conversion factor is measured in...
Volume per unit of weight
Volume units / Weight Units
Ex. bu / t
What is -20C in Fahrenheit?

(245 x 8 = 1960 / 1000 = 1.96)
A baby weighed 9 lbs 14 oz at birth. What is this weight in grams?
4468 g
(9 lbs 14 oz = 9.875 lbs / 2.21 (lbs to 1 kg) = 4.4683 kg x 1000 = 4468 g)
If the conversion factor (Volume [bu] / weight [t]) for bushels of grapes is 42.95 and 37.26 for blueberries, which weighs more per unit of volume?
BLUEBERRIES
G= 42.95 bu / 1 t
B= 37.26 bu / 1 t
(It takes more bushels of grapes to make up 1 t so the blueberries weigh more)
If today's temperature in Calgary is 40F and 2C in Edmonton, which city is cooler?
Edmonton (2C is cooler than 4.4C)
I bought a 30lb box of apples from the orchard for $28.99. What is the cost of the apples per ounce (oz)?
$16.56 / oz

(2 kg x 2.21 lbs to kg = 4.42 lbs 4.42 / 0.25 = 17.68 )
If 1 bushel is 2220 cubic inches, how many bushels of rice are there in a bin with the following dimensions: 10 ft x 8 ft x 6 feet
373.62 bu of rice
(120 in. x 96 in. x 72 in. = 829,440
829,440 / 2220 = 373.621)
