Sometimes things break in houses. Calling a repair man is expensive. As a homeowner, you need tools. Go to the local hardware store. Most sell tool kits with the basic hand tools.

And these separate items can be found for less than ten dollars. Read about how to use these tools, and home improvement projects are easy.

Measurements

2.     What is measured in pounds?

Know your measurements

Fasteners and tools use imperial measurements or metric, and knowing the difference is important. It prevents you from rounding off a fastener, damaging tools, or causing injury. If you don’t know an item’s size, use a micrometer or other caliper to measure it. Check centimeters or millimeters for metric tools. Look at inches for imperial tools.

Volume and weight are also very different in the two systems. Using quarts when a formula calls for liters is very dangerous. A cubic inch is totally different from a cubic meter. For weights, a pound cannot substitute for a kilogram. Always pay close attention to which system is required. If you must use tools from the other system, refer to a table of conversion.

4.     Then, fill in the blanks using words from the word bank.

Measuring Savings, Gauging Safety

You see the instrument cluster on your dashboard every time you drive. Are you using it to stay safe and save money? Sure, you check your fuel gauge so you don’t run out of gas. You probably eye the speedometer to avoid traffic tickets. Before you go on a trip, you might set the odometer to see how far you travel.

But checking the other gauges improves safety and saves money. Watch your tachometer. Running the engine fast wastes fuel and money. A glance at the temperature gauge prevents overheating. Monitor your tires with the tire pressure gauge. Correctly inflated tires add miles per gallon. Finally, watch out for the battery light. If it turns on, there’s a problem with the charging system.

4.     Then, mark the following statements as true (T) or false (F).
