Hi, this is Rob, welcome to Math Antics! In this video, we’re gonna introduce the concept of measurement which is an important topic in math and especially in science. We’re also gonna take a look at a particular system of measurement called “The Metric System”. Objects have different physical properties, right? …like size, weight, volume, etc. Well, the whole point of measurement is to quantify those properties, which just means expressing them as a number. Without measuring, you could say that someone is “tall” or “short” or that a package is “heavy” or “light”. But those are relative terms that don’t give us very specific information. Instead, if you were to make actual measurements, you could say that someone’s height is 130 cm, or that a package weighs 5.2 kg. Measurements use an actual number to describe properties like that so that you can know them more precisely. But, there’s
