Compound Measures

By the end of this unit, students will be able to:

1. calculate capacity with given dimensions;
2. develop convert between related compound units in numerical and algebraic contexts;
3. calculate compound measures that involve two or more different units.

Curriculum Alignment: Key Stage 4: Ratio, proportion and rates of change

• change freely between related standard units [for example time, length, area, volume/capacity, mass]
• use compound units such as speed, unit pricing and density to solve problems.
