Answer 1

As we know,

`\begin{gathered} 1\text{ m = 100 cm} \\ 1\text{ cm = }(1)/(100)\text{ m} \end{gathered}`

Snowstorms in the white mountains snowed 300 centimeters in one week.

Now,

`\begin{gathered} 300\text{ cm = }(300)/(100)\text{ m} \\ 300\text{ cm = 3 m} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the answer is 3 m.
