Answer:

James is 1 meter and 63 centimeters tall

Explanation:

James is 1 meter and 63 centimeters tall. The first step will be to subtract 1 from his height;

1.63 - 1 = 0.63 meters

The 1 subtracted is equivalent to 1 meter. The next step is to convert the remaining height in meters to centimeters by multiplying by 100;

0.63 * 100 = 63 centimeters

We can thus say, James is 1 meter and 63 centimeters tall or equivalently 163 centimeters tall
