This math topic focuses on measuring lengths using a ruler marked in whole inches. The primary aim is to measure the length of crayons using this customary unit of measurement. Questions challenge students to read and interpret measures starting from the middle of the ruler, enhancing their understanding of practical measurement and reinforcing their foundational skills in fractions. Each problem provides a visual representation of a crayon alongside a ruler, with multiple choice answers to encourage the development of estimation and precise measurement skills.
