Mural Height = 7 meters

Find the height of the marble sculpture if the mural is 69 centimeters taller.

Solution:

Convert the height of the mural into centimeters to easily calculate how tall it is from the marble sculpture.

1 meter = 100 cm

7 meters = 700 cm

Subtract 69 cm from 700 cm in order to get the height of the marble sculpture.

700cm - 69 cm = 631 cm

Convert 631 cm into meters by dividing it with 100.

=631 /100

= 6.31 m

The height of the mural is 6.31 m
