Question

From the table given, look at the Women’s World Records. What is the difference between the longest jump and the highest jump?

Answer 1

We know that 1 m = 100 cm
From the given table:
Women’s World record for high jump = 2 m 9 cm
= 2 x 100 + 9
= 209 cm

Women’s World record for long jump = 7 m 52 cm
= 7 x 100 + 52 = 752 cm

So, difference between them is = 752 – 209
= 543 cm

The distance between the longest jump and the highest Jump is 543 cm
