In your activity, you were able to use your body parts in performing non-
standard measurements. But what really is the meaning of measurement? Are
there any standard systems of measures that we need to consider? Let’s find out!
ENGLISH SYSTEM
The unit of measurement used in ancient times where chosen for
convenience rather that accuracy. Historical records indicate that the first units
of length were based on human feet, hands, and arms. Long distances were
measured by paces and volume were measured using common household items such
as pails, cups, and baskets.
The foot, hand span and cubit appear in the early records of Babylonians and
Egyptians. Our Filipino ancestors, on the other hand, used hakbang, dangkal, dipa,
dakot and talampakan.

42 feet
=
12
= 3.5 feet
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 4
METRIC SYSTEM
The Metric System of measurement is a modern system. It is scientific
and simple to follow. It is easier to use than the English System of Measurement
since its conversion factors would consistently be in decimal system, unlike English
System of Measurement where the units of lengths have different conversion
factors. All its measurements are based on multiples or powers of 10.
The base unit for length is the meter and units longer or shorter than the
meter would be achieved by adding prefixes to the base units. These prefixes may
also be used for the base units for mass, volume, time, and other measurements.
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 5
MEASURE OF LENGTH
The first standard unit for length was cubit, the distance from the elbow
to the extended finger of an adult. Cubit was developed by the Egyptians in 3, 000
B.C.
Examples:
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 6
10 millimeters (mm) = 1 centimeter (cm)
10 cm = 1 decimeter (dm)
10 dm = 1 meter (m)
10 m = 1 dekameter (dam)
10 dam = 1 hectometer (hm)
10 hm = 1 kilometer (km)
Other equivalents that are often used are:
1 mile = 1.6 km
1 hectare (ha) = 10,000 square meter (sq m)
Solution:
1,000 mm
5m x = 5,000 mm Find a conversion factor
1m
and cancel out the common units.

measures, you can refer to your Math book on pages 114-127.)

In our previous lesson, we talked about history of measurement and
measuring length. Now let’s proceed to measuring other fundamental quantities
such as mass and volume.
The doctor may consider the concept of measuring the mass and volume of a
substance or an object. But what are the units used to measure the mass of bigger
objects? How about smaller objects? We usually encounter beverages in the
supermarket. What are the units used to measure the volume of smaller
beverages? How about the bigger ones? Are you ready to learn? Great! But first,

_________________________________________________________
In your activities, you were able to measure the mass of certain objects and
estimate the capacity of a certain material. Sometimes, we interchangeably used
the term mass and weight. Are they related to each other? How about volume and
capacity? What are the SI units used in these kinds of quantities? Let’s find out!
Mass and weight are often used interchangeably. However, they are not
exactly the same. The weight of an object measures the pull of the earth’s gravity
on it. It changes when the object’s location on earth changes. However, mass
measures the amount of matter in an object. It does not change even when the
object’s location changes.
The instruments commonly used to measure mass are weighing scale and the
balance. A weighing scale for commercial use is more convenient and easier to
manipulate, but not as accurate. A digital weighing scale is available in the market
right now that can provide an accurate result.

The SI standard unit of mass is kilogram (kg). The gram is of a
1000
kilogram. It is used for small weights such as ingredients in recipes or nutritional
contents of various foods.
The base unit for mass or weight is gram (g). We can change all units into
grams by multiplying the conversion factor.

3. What can be done to improve your skill in estimating angle measurements?
_________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________
In your activity, you were able to recall how to measure angles using a
device called protractor. Let’s deepen our understanding about angles, and try to
convert and approximate other fundamental quantities, namely, time, temperature,
and rate.
ANGLES
- derived from the Latin word angulus, which means center
- defined as a figure formed when two rays share a common endpoint called
the vertex.
- are measured either in degrees, or radians or revolutions
Notice that there are two scales, one reading from the right to left and the
other from left to right. These help us in measuring an angle in any position.
TIME
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 19
- A clock measures the passage of time.
- Time is measured in hours, minutes, and seconds.
- There are two types of notation in stating time, the 12-hour notation
(standard time) or the 24-hour notation (military and astronomical time).
- The standard time makes use of a.m. and p.m. to distinguish between the
time from midnight to 12 noon ( a.m. or ante meridiem) and from 12 noon to
midnight (p.m. or post meridiem).
The calendar is tied up with our idea of the passage of time, and the
following will be helpful in measuring it.
1. 80 min to h
1h
80 min x
60 min
= 1.3 h
2. 9 h to min
60 min
9h x
1h
= 540 min
- A circle has 3600. The hour hand of a circular analog clock turns 360 0 in 12
hours, while the minute hand turns 3600 in 60 minutes. The angle made by
the two hands is 900 when the time is 3 o’clock. Therefore, 1-hour interval
corresponds to 300.
Example:
How many degrees are formed by the hands of an analog circular clock at 4 o’clock?
Solution:
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 20
Since at 3 o’clock, the hands form 90 0. At 4 o’clock, the hands of the clock will
form 900 + 300, which is equal to 1200.
ANSWER = 1200
-
RATE
Speed is the rate of an object’s change in position along a line.
- Average speed is determined by dividing the distance travelled by the time
spent to cover the distance.
distance d
Speed = or S =
time t
The base SI unit for speed is meter per second (m/s). The commonly used
unit for speed is kilometer/hour (Kph or km/h) for the English System.
Solution:
TEMPERATURE
- It refers to the degree of hotness or coldness of a body.
- The metric unit of temperature is degree Celsius (0C) by Andres Celsius.
- The instrument used for measuring temperature is thermometer.
- Another unit of temperature is degree Fahrenheit (0F) by Gabriel
Fahrenheit.
The following formulas will help us convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius and vice
versa.

A polynomial can be written in descending order in which the exponents of
the variables are arranged from highest to lowest, or ascending order in which the
exponents of the variables are arranged from lowest to highest.
Examples:
A polynomial is in standard
form if its terms are arranged from
the term with the highest degree,
up to the term with the lowest
degree.
Examples:
7y and 10y2
are NOT similar because their literal coefficients are NOT the same.
There are two ways on how to add or subtract polynomials. These are the
horizontal method and the vertical method.
Examples:
10x2 + 4x + 4
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 36
METHOD II: Adding Horizontally
(3x2 – 4x + 5) + (7x2 + 8x – 1)
= 3x2 - 4x + 5 + 7x2 + 8x – 1
= 3x2 + 7x2 – 4x + 8x + 5 – 1
= 10x2 + 4x + 4
- To subtract using the vertical method, align like terms in the same column;
change the sign of the subtrahend; then proceed to addition.
Minuend Subtrahend
5x2 + 3x + 6 5x 2 + 3x + 6
4x2 + x + 17
= 5x2 + 3x + 6 – x2 - 2x + 11
= 5x2 – x2 + 3x – 2x + 6 + 11

DIVIDING POLYNOMIALS
DIVIDING A MONOMIAL BY A MONOMIAL
a. To divide a monomial by a monomial, divide the coefficients applying the laws
of signs for division.
b. Then each variable in the quotient an exponent equal to the difference
between the exponent of each variable in the dividend and that if the
corresponding variable in the divisor.
Example:
1. -12a3b3c ÷ 3ab
Solution:
3 3 3 3
−12 a b c −12 a b
3 ab
= 3 * a
* b
*c = -4a2b2c
MATHEMATICS 7: MODULE 2 47
a. Divide each term of the polynomial by the monomial.
Example:
Solution:
5
= x2 – 7x – 4 + x
Example:
1. 6x2 – x – 12 ÷ 2x – 3
Solution:
3 x+ 4
→
2x – 3 6x2 – x – 12 - divide 6x 2 by 2x = 3x
- 6x2 – 9x - multiply 3x(2x-3) = 6x 2-9x, subtract 6x2 – x
8x – 12 by 6x2 – 9x = 8x (bring down -12) = 8x – 12
- 8x – 12 - divide 8x by 2x = 4, multiply 2x – 3 by 4 = 8x – 12
- subtract 8x – 12 by 8x – 12 = 0
