How to solve Grade 5 measurement problems

Real problems from these worksheets, solved one step at a time — the same explanations your child sees when practicing online.

  1. Example 1

    96 inches = ___ feet

    1. 1 foot = 12 inches.
    2. Inches are smaller than feet, so there will be fewer feet: divide by 12. 96 ÷ 12 = 8.
    3. 96 inches = 8 feet.

    Answer: 8

  2. Example 2

    2 pounds 13 ounces = ___ ounces

    1. Change the pounds first. 1 pound = 16 ounces, so 2 pounds = 2 × 16 = 32 ounces.
    2. Add the extra 13 ounces: 32 + 13 = 45.
    3. 2 pounds 13 ounces = 45 ounces.

    Answer: 45

  3. Example 3

    How many cups are in 19 pints?

    1. 1 pint = 2 cups.
    2. 19 pints is 19 groups of 2: 19 × 2 = 38.
    3. There are 38 cups in 19 pints.

    Answer: 38
