Question

Cody has a bag of 30 pencils each pencil is 16 centimeters long what is the combined length in meters?

Answer 1

The combined length of the 30 pencils is:

30 pencils x 16 centimeters per pencil = 480 centimeters

To convert centimeters to meters, we divide by 100, since there are 100 centimeters in a meter:

480 centimeters ÷ 100 = 4.8 meters

Therefore, the combined length of the 30 pencils is 4.8 meters.

Answer 2

The total length of the 30 pencils in centimeters is:

30 x 16 = 480 cm

To convert centimeters to meters, we divide by 100:

480 cm / 100 = 4.8 m

Therefore, the combined length of the 30 pencils is 4.8 meters.
