Question

The length of a log of wood is 2 m 15 cm. What will be its length in cm ?

• A. $\text{250 cm}$
• B. $\text{2150 cm}$
• C. $\text{215 cm}$
• D. $\text{200 cm}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\text{215 cm}$

$\text{Length of a log of wood}$ $\text{= 2 m 15 cm}$

$\text{To calculate the length of the log of}$ $\text{wood, in cm, we have to}$ $\text{convert}$ $\text{m to cm.}$

$\text{We know that,}$
$\text{1 m = 100 cm}$


$\text{Hence, we will multiply 2 with 100.}$

$\text{So, 2 m}=2\times 1\text{m}$
$=2\times 100\text{cm}$
$=200\text{cm}$

Now, the total length of the log of wood is:
$⟹$ $\text{200 + 15 = 215 cm}$

$\text{Thus, the total length of the log of}$ $\text{wood is 215 cm.}$
