Question

Dimple has the longest jump of 4 metres 40 cm. Gauri is second. Her jump is 30 cm less than Dimple's. How long is Gauri's jump?

• A.
  2 m 20 cm
• B.
  
  4 m 10 cm
  
• C.
  5 m 10 cm
• D.
  3 m 20 cm

Answer 1

The correct option is B


4 m 10 cm

Long jump of Dimple = 4 m 40 cm
Long jump of Gauri is 30 cm less than Dimple's jump.
We need to subtract 30 cm from Dimple's jump to find Gauri's jump.

So, length of the jump of Gauri = 4 m 40 cm - 30 cm = 4 m 10 cm
