Game: MIX AND MATCH
Aim: Drag question blocks to answer boxes
Method:
Drag the question block over the right answer box to tidy up the play room. Points are added and taken away automatically.
Click the answer boxes to hear the answer for each box. You must answer 5 questions correctly to complete the game
3rd grade / Measurements / Calculate / Add liters and milliliters
To add litres and millilitres together, you first need to convert the litres to millilitres. This is because litres and millilitres are related but different units of measurement for volume, and you cannot directly add them without first converting them to the same unit. Here's how to do it:
Convert litres to millilitres: As there are 1,000 millilitres in a litre, you need to multiply the number of litres by 1,000 to convert it to millilitres.
For example, let's say you have 3 litres and 250 millilitres. To convert the 3 litres to millilitres, you would multiply by 1,000:
3 litres x 1,000 = 3,000 millilitres
Add the converted volume to the millilitres: Now that you have the volume in millilitres, you can add it to the other volume, which is already in millilitres.
3,000 ml + 250 ml = 3,250 ml
So, the combined volume of 3 litres and 250 millilitres is 3,250 millilitres.
Another example, add 1.3 litres and 740 millilitres.
Converting the litres to millilitres we have 1.3 L x 1,000 = 1,300 ml.
Adding the millilitres we have 1,300 ml + 740 ml = 2,040 ml.
So, the combined volume of 1.3 litres and 740 millilitres is 2,040 millilitres.
This topic asks you to add volumes in litres and millilitres together by first converting the litres to millilitres. Your answers should be in millilitres.
With our Mix and match math game you will be practicing the topic "Add liters and milliliters" from 3rd grade / Measurements / Calculate. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to add liters and milliliters by converting the liters to milliliters and then adding the volumes together.
In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.
You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...
This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?

There are 5 blocks that need putting away to tidy the play room. Drag (they are heavy...) the blocks to the correct boxes.
