Question

Convert measurement to specified unit round to 2 Decimal places if necessary

Answer 1

EXPLANATION:

Given;

We are given the following measures;

$\begin{gathered} 3\text{ }meters \\ ?\text{ }inches \end{gathered}$

To begin, we shall convert meters to a smaller unit.

Note that;

$100cm=1m$

Therefore;

$\begin{gathered} 3\text{ }meters=100\times3(centimeters) \\ 3\text{ }meters=300\text{ }centimeters \end{gathered}$

Now we shall convert centimeters to inches. Note that the standard rate of conversion;

$1\text{ }centimeter=\frac{1}{2.54}\text{ }inches$$1\text{ }centimeter=0.3937\text{ }inches$

Therefore, we can now convert 300 centimeters as follows;

$300\text{ }centimeters=300\times(0.3937)\text{ }inches$$300\text{ }centimeters=118.11\text{ }inches$

ANSWER:

$3\text{ }meters=118.11\text{ }inches$
