Nursing Math! Need help!

[leapinglizards3]

My math teacher has given us an assignment that none of us really has a clue about completing. We were given 19 "conversions" to memorize. We must put each on a flashcard (easy) and draw, paste, etc. a "visual cue" on the back side. He gave us 2 examples: for 4 qt=1gal a square divided into quarters, a big G in the middle and a little q in each quarter and for 2.2lbs=1kg a stick man with a big tummy with 2.2lbs in the middle looking at a scale that says 1kg

But, we are all lost as to how to do the rest and it's due tomorrow. Any suggestions? The ones we have to do are as follows:

1c=8fl.oz

2pt=1qt

1ft=12in

1m=2.5cm

1qt=1.08L

1qt=1000cc

1000mcg=1mg

60mimums=1fl.dr

1 fl.oz=2tbsp

1 fl.oz=30mL

1 fl.dr.-4-5mL

1t=4-5mL

1lb=16oz

1g=1000mg

1hr=60min

1gr=60mg (except aspirin which is 65mg)

1t=60gtts

I did this and drew the items used to measure them side by side. E.g. a teaspoon next to 60 drops. It was really helpful. Once you think about the conversions, pictures will come to you.

Make the 1oz to 30 mL something really memorable, that one comes up A LOT later.

1m=100cm not 2.5cm...just a heads up

HEHE. It was supposed to be 1in = 2.5cm I drew an inchworm above 2.5cm

Some of these I can't think of a visual for because they are easy ones I learned in elementary school..

I've already completed the assignment. We were given the conversions, but we had to make flashcards with visual "cues" that would help us remember them. I knew the conversions, I was just having a hard time coming up with pics to represent them. :)
