Question

Use two unit multipliers to convert 15,000 square centimeters to square meters.

Answer 1

1.5 square meters

Explanation:

There are 100 centimeters in a meter, so one square meter is equal to 100 cm x 100 cm = 10,000 square centimeters. To convert 15,000 square centimeters to square meters, we need to divide by 10,000 square centimeters/meter^2.

So, we can use two unit multipliers to convert 15,000 square centimeters to square meters:

15,000 cm^2 x (1 m / 100 cm) x (1 m / 100 cm) = 1.5 square meters

Therefore, 15,000 square centimeters is equal to 1.5 square meters.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1 square centimeter = 0.0001 square meters (since 1 meter = 100 centimeters, then 1 meter squared = 100 cm squared = 100 x 100 = 10,000 cm squared)

To convert 15,000 square centimeters to square meters, we can use two unit multipliers:

15,000 cm^2 * (1 m^2 / 10,000 cm^2) * (1 m^2 / 1 m^2) = 1.5 m^2

Therefore, 15,000 square centimeters is equal to 1.5 square meters.
