Question

Which of the following measures is equal to 4 km 5 dam?

• A. 4,500 m
• B. 45,000 m
• C. 4,050 m
• D. 405 m

Answer 1

The correct option is C 4,050 m

The measure given is 4 km 5 dam.

All the options are expressed in terms of meter.

So, the conversion table is represented as:

So, 1 km = 10 × 10 × 10 = 1,000 m
And 1 dam = 10 m

$\text{∴ The value of 4 km = 4 × 1,000 m = 4,000 m}$,
and the value of 5 dam = 5 × 10 m = 50 m

$\text{So, the value of 4 km 5 dam = 4,000 m + 50 m}$
$\text{= 4,050 m}$
