Students solve three multi-step customary problems — a carpenter's board after cutting, juice remaining after pouring, and a combined package weight. Part B has five fill-in-the-blank problems including mixed-unit addition, gallon-quart subtraction, and cups-to-pints.
Multi-step customary problems that require converting, then operating — such as converting feet to inches before subtracting — prepare students for the measurement reasoning in all Grade 5 multi-step contexts.

B) 10 runners
C) 8 runners
D) 4 runners
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1. 3 yards 2 feet + 1 yard 2 feet = 5 yards 1 foot (write as: 5 y 1 f)
2. 5 gallons − 3 quarts = 17 quarts
3. A recipe needs 6 cups of milk. That equals 3 pints.
4. A truck carries 3 tons of gravel. That equals 6,000 pounds.
5. 72 inches + 4 feet = 10 feet
