Question

How many meters are there in 234 cm?

Answer 1

Alright. Let me help you understand this better.

Usually, there is an amount that equals to the other.

Ask ourselves, how many cm in a meter?

1 meter = 100 centimeters

Now, how many centimeters do we have here?

234

Ok, see how many meters are in that.

234 = 2.34 centimeters.

This is another way to solve this.

Since 1:100 is our ratio, we can solve for a proportional relationship.

1/100 = x/234

Cross multiply

1*234 = 234
100*x = 100

234/100 = ?

234/100 = 2.34

There we go! Same answer! :D

Final answer: 2.34 meters

Answer 2

There are 100 cm for every 1 meter

`(1 m)/(100 cm)`
so insert the 234 as the numerator and simplify

`(234cm)/(100cm)`
The simplified form of the equation is 2.34
There is 2.34 meters in 234 cm
