Decimal ____ 26.6cm _____ 19.1 cm __ 9.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of shoebox shaped object :

Format ______Length ______width ___ height

cm and mm _26cm 6mm _19cm 1mm_9cm 5mm

Decimal ____ 26.6cm _____ 19.1 cm __ 9.5cm

Recall:

1mm = 0.1cm

For the length :

26cm + 6mm = 26cm+(6*0.1) = 26 + 0.6 = 26.6cm

Width:

19cm + 1mm = 19cm+(1*0.1) = 19 + 0.1 = 19.1cm

Height:

9cm + 5mm = 9cm+(5*0.1) = 9 + 0.5 = 9.5cm
