Class 5 Maths Chapter 8 Worksheet with Answers – Class 5 Weight and Capacity Worksheet

Riya was curious to know how much the things in her house weighed. She wanted to make a chart for her school project titled “Weigh It Up!”. So, she started noting down the weights of different items and prepared a list.

Question 1.
Review her list and tick all the items that appear to be recorded correctly. Here is what she has recorded in her list.

Question 2.
Now Riya reads the scales 9iven. below and wants to write the correct weight in the blanks.

After some time, while helping her mother arrange groceries and household items, she came across two old weighing balances in the storeroom. One showed weights in kilograms (kg) and the other in grams (g).

Question 3.
Her mother gave her a fun task:
“Use these balances to weigh the bags correctly and verify that the weights are same—even if they are written in different units.”
Riya excitedly began weighing the bags one by one. She carefully recorded what each weighing balance showed. Here’s what she found:

Item	Weight on kilogram balance	Weight on gram balance
Bag of flour	5 kg	__________ g
Sack of potatoes	10 kg	__________ g
Rice bag	___________ kg	20,000 g
Sugar pack	3 kg	__________ g
Large pet food bag	25 kg	__________ g
Bag of pulse	___________ kg	5,000 g

Look over her list and fill in all the blanks.

Question 4.
Riya drew a double number line to verify the following conversions easily. Fill in the blanks to help her check her observations.

Question 5.
After some time, her mother said, “Riya, I need exactly 3 kilograms and 500 grams of flour to bake a cake. Can you measure it using the gram weighing machine?” What should the weighting balance show for 3 kg 500 g of flour?

Activity

To estimate the weight and capacity of everyday objects as accurately as possible using standard metric units.
In this activity, students work in small teams to guess the weight and capacity of everyday objects. The teacher shows items like lunchboxes, juice boxes, water bottles, and cookie packets. Two teams take turns to play.

In each team, one student tries to guess how heavy things like rice bags or cookie packets are. They make their guesses using grams, rounding to the nearest ten. Another student guesses how much liquid items like juice boxes or water bottles can hold, using millilitres, also to the nearest ten. A third student writes all the guesses in a table. Later, another team uses real tools like weighing scales and measuring cups to find out the exact weight and capacity. They write the actual numbers in the same table. This activity helps students learn to make close guesses and understand how we measure weight and volume using metric units.

The team with the guesses that are closest to the actual measurements gets points.
