Let's solve the problem step by step based on the image you described. The worksheet is about
milliliters (mL) and
liters (L), which are units used to measure capacity in the metric system.
---
🔹 Key Concepts:
-
1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL)
- So, to convert:
-
Liters to milliliters: Multiply by 1000
-
Milliliters to liters: Divide by 1000
---
🔹 Part 1: Choose the unit you would use to measure the capacity of each object
We have six objects:
1.
Fishbowl → Large amount of water → Use
Liters (L)
2.
Cup with liquid → Small amount → Use
Milliliters (mL)
3.
Spoon → Very small amount → Use
Milliliters (mL)
4.
Teacup → Small amount → Use
Milliliters (mL)
5.
Bucket → Large amount → Use
Liters (L)
6.
Pot → Medium to large amount → Use
Liters (L)
✔ So, answers:
- Fishbowl:
L
- Cup:
mL
- Spoon:
mL
- Teacup:
mL
- Bucket:
L
- Pot:
L

🔹 Part 2: Fill in the blanks
Now solve the conversion problems:
1.
9 L = ______ mL
→ Multiply by 1000:
$ 9 \times 1000 = 9000 $
✔ 9 L = 9000 mL
2.
13,000 mL = ______ L
→ Divide by 1000:
$ 13,000 \div 1000 = 13 $
✔ 13,000 mL = 13 L
3.
______ mL = 6 L
→ Multiply 6 by 1000:
$ 6 \times 1000 = 6000 $
✔ 6000 mL = 6 L
---
✔ Final Answers:
Part 1 (Units):
- Fishbowl:
L
- Cup:
mL
- Spoon:
mL
- Teacup:
mL
- Bucket:
L
- Pot:
L
Part 2 (Conversions):
- 9 L =
9000 mL
- 13,000 mL =
13 L
-
6000 mL = 6 L
