Question

Express $9m350cm$ as metre $\left(m\right)$ using decimals.

Answer 1

We know that, $1m=100cm$

We are going from smaller unit to greater unit. So, we will divide the smaller unit to get the bigger unit.

$$\begin{gathered} 9m350cm=9m+350cm \\ 9m350cm=9m+\frac{350}{100}m \\ 9m350cm=9m+3.50m \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, $9m350cm=12.50m$.
