Answer 2

3 meters will be approx 120 inches.

Explanation:

Metric System Units

1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

1 foot = 0.3048 meters

1 mile = 1.61 kilometers

Now, 1 inch = 2.54 cm

12 inches =
`12*2.54=30.48` cm

1 foot = 12 inches

We can say that ; 12 inches = 0.3048 meters

or 0.3048 meters = 12 inches.

`0.3048*10` meters =
`12*10` inches

So, 3 meters will be approx 120 inches.
