Answer 2

The length of the diving board in 3.78 m

Further Explanation

The length of diving board is 378 cm (centimeters)?

Convert this length into m (meters)!

we know that :

$\boxed {1 cm = \frac{1}{100} m }$  or

$\boxed {100 cm = 1 m }$ so it would be:

$\boxed {\frac{100 cm}{1 m}= \frac{1 m}{1 m} }$

or

$\boxed {\frac{1 m}{100 cm}=\frac{1 m}{1 m} }$

If we look on the right side of the equation, it is now has the same quantity  in the numerator and denominator, so the value would be 1

$\boxed {\frac{1 m}{100 cm} = 1 }$

the above equation called a conversion factor.

So to find out how much 378 cm in m, we will multiply 378 with the conversion factor:

$\boxed {378 cm \times\frac{1 m}{100 cm} }\\\boxed {=3.78 m }$

We got the result that 378 cm = 3.78 m
