2. 1/3 = 0.333...
3. 2/10 = 0.2
4. 4/8 = 0.5
5. 6/8 = 0.75

B. Convert the following measurement to their unit equivalents.

1. 5 meters = 500 centimetres
2. 6 meters = 19 feet 8.22 inches
3. 5 feet = 60 inches
4. 25 inches = 63.5 centimetres
5. 472.44 inches = 12 metres

C. Compute the number of board feet of lumber with the following dimensions.

1. 2” x 6” x 12”= 144 board feet
2. 3” x 4” x10”= 120 board feet
3. 2” 2” x 16” = 64 board feet
4. 2” x 12” x 8” = 192 board feet
5. 4” x 4” x 18” = 288 board feet
