Measurement in Your Daily Life: Uses Tools and Challenges

You use different forms of measurement throughout your daily life at home at work and in other day to day activities. For example when brewing a pot of coffee in the morning both the water and the coffee grounds must be measured to create a cup (or two) to start off the day. On the drive to work or school you also must consider the time of day and associated traffic the distance to travel and the amount of gas in the tank of the car.
