Remember
  • Start at the 0 mark, keep the object straight, and read the number at the other end.
  • A smaller unit gives a larger number: the same strip is 2 feet or 24 inches.
  • Always write the unit, such as 5 in, 12 cm, or 21 ft.
  • Subtract two lengths to find how much longer one object is.
  • On a number line diagram, a jump right adds and a jump left subtracts.
