5.MD.A.1

Convert customary and metric measurement units within a single system by expressing measurements of a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Use these conversions to solve multi-step real-world problems involving distances, intervals of time, liquid volumes, masses of objects, and money (including problems involving simple fractions or decimals). For example, 3.6 liters and 4.1 liters can be combined as 7.7 liters or 7700 milliliters.
