State whether the given statement is correct or wrong.

Tina had $1556cm$ long cloth.She cut $13m50cm$ from it.The length of cloth left with her is $2.06m$.

Answer 1

Step 1. Make each quantity in same unit.

$$\begin{gathered} 1556cm=15.56mas1m=100cm \\ 13m50cm=13.50m \end{gathered}$$

The length of cloth left with her $=$Total length $-$length of the cloth she cut

$$\begin{gathered} =15.56-13.5015.56-13.502.06 \\ =2.06m \end{gathered}$$

So the length of cloth left with her is $2.06m$

hence the given statement is correct.
