Converting Units of Capacity for 4th Grade
Capacity conversions differ by system: customary units step through cups, pints, quarts, and gallons, while metric units scale by powers of ten from milliliters to liters. Multiply toward smaller units, divide toward larger. The examples below cover both, with practice.
DETAILED EXPLANATION
Capacity: cups (c), pints (pt), quarts (qt), gallons (gal). 2 c = 1 pt; 2 pt = 1 qt; 4 qt = 1 gal. Metric: milliliters (mL), liters (L). 1,000 mL = 1 L.
