This math topic focuses on the conversion of metric volume units involving decimals from smaller units to the base unit, and vice versa. Students practice converting metric volume measurements such as liters to and from kiloliters, hectoliters, decaliters, centiliters, and milliliters. The problems provide values in one unit that the students must convert to another, selecting the correct answer from multiple choices. This reinforces understanding of the hierarchical relationships within metric volume measurements and hones skills in handling decimals in practical measurement contexts.
