14. How we connect measurement
with materials
• To make a material like rubber, you need to know how much
latex and chemicals there are inside it.
• Materials like plastic can’t burn so they have to be put
in a landfill. You need to measure how much can fit inside
there.
• You need to have a certain size of paper such as A4 to fit
inside some printers, so you have to measure and cut the
edges if its not the right size.
