Since I can't view or access images directly, I can’t see the specific lines you’re referring to in your worksheet. However, I can guide you through how to
solve this type of measurement problem and explain the steps clearly so you can apply them to your image.

🔍 Understanding the Worksheet
This is a
Grade 3 Measurement Worksheet from
K5 Learning, focused on measuring lengths to the nearest millimeter (mm) using a metric ruler.
#### Key Information:
- Each small marking =
1 mm
- 10 mm =
1 cm
- Measurements should be written in
centimeters (cm), using
decimals (e.g., 3.5 cm)
---
✔ Part 1: Measuring Lines (Questions 1–6)
You are given
6 lines of varying lengths. You need to:
1. Use a
metric ruler (or visualize it).
2. Align the
zero mark with one end of the line.
3. Read where the other end falls.
4. Record the length in
centimeters, including decimals.
#### Example:
If a line ends at the
35 mm mark:
- Convert to cm:
$$
35 \text{ mm} = \frac{35}{10} = 3.5 \text{ cm}
$$
So, write
3.5 cm.

📏 Step-by-Step Guide for Measuring:
1. Place the
ruler's zero at the start of the line.
2. Look at where the line ends.
3. Count the number of
millimeter marks.
4. Divide by 10 to get centimeters (since 10 mm = 1 cm).
> For example:
> - If a line ends at
47 mm, then $ 47 \div 10 = 4.7 $ cm → write
4.7 cm

✔ Part 2: Drawing Lines (Questions 7–9)
Now you must
draw lines based on given measurements:
| Question | Measurement | How to Draw |
|--------|-------------|------------|
| 7 | 35 mm | Draw a line from 0 to 35 mm (which is 3.5 cm) |
| 8 | 6.1 cm | 6.1 cm = 61 mm → draw to 61 mm |
| 9 | 74 mm | 74 mm = 7.4 cm → draw to 74 mm |
> Tip: Use a
metric ruler and carefully align the starting point at 0.
---
💡 Tips:
- Always use the
metric side of the ruler (usually labeled in mm/cm).
- Write answers in
cm, with
one decimal place (e.g., 2.8 cm, not 28 mm).
- Double-check alignment — make sure the line starts exactly at 0.

❓ What if I Can't See the Lines?
Since I can’t see your image, here’s what you should do:
1. Take a real
metric ruler.
2. Measure each line
from left to right.
3. Note the
last millimeter mark the line reaches.
4. Convert to cm: divide mm by 10.
Example:
- Line 1 goes from 0 to 23 mm → $ 23 \div 10 = 2.3 $ cm → write
2.3 cm
Repeat for all six lines.
Then for drawing:
- For 35 mm: measure 3.5 cm and draw a straight line.
- For 6.1 cm: measure 61 mm.
- For 74 mm: measure 7.4 cm.

✔ Final Answer Format (Example):
```
1. 2.3 cm
2. 4.8 cm
3. 6.2 cm
4. 1.9 cm
5. 3.7 cm
6. 5.5 cm
7. [Draw 3.5 cm line]
8. [Draw 6.1 cm line]
9. [Draw 7.4 cm line]
```
> Replace values with actual measurements from your image.

If you describe the lengths of the lines (e.g., “Line 1 goes from 0 to 28 mm”), I can help you calculate the exact answers!
