Answer 1

Given:

2.54 cm = 1 in

Let's find the number of inches equal to 10 centimeters.

Since we are given:

2.54 cm = 1 in

10 cm = x in

Thus, we have:

`\begin{gathered} 10cm*\frac{1\text{ in}}{2.54\text{ cm}} \\ \\ =(10)/(2.54) \\ \\ =3.937\text{ in}\approx3.94\text{ in} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the equivalent measure of 10 centimeters in inches is 3.94 in.
