Section 1
Add and Subtract Mixed Units with Regrouping
Property
When adding or subtracting mixed units, you may need to regroup between the larger and smaller units. Use the standard conversion factors to regroup correctly.
In this Grade 4 Eureka Math lesson from Chapter 8, students apply addition and subtraction to solve multi-step word problems involving metric units of length, mass, and capacity, including mixed units such as kilograms and grams or liters and milliliters. Students practice converting between metric units and use labeled diagrams and equations to model real-world problems like comparing weights of vegetables measured in mixed units. The lesson builds on prior work with metric conversions to develop fluency and problem-solving strategies with measurement contexts.

Add and Subtract Mixed Units with Regrouping
When adding or subtracting mixed units, you may need to regroup between the larger and smaller units. Use the standard conversion factors to regroup correctly.
Section 2
Model and Solve Multi-Step Measurement Problems
To solve a multi-step measurement word problem, first model the relationships between the known and unknown quantities using a tape diagram. Then, use the diagram to set up and solve the sequence of addition and subtraction equations needed to find the solution. Finally, assess if the answer is reasonable in the context of the problem.
