Answer: 2.54(x)

Explanation:

Since an inch is equal to about 2.54 centimeters, the expression which estimates the number of centimeters in X inches will be gotten by multiplying 2.54 by X. This will be:

= 2.54 × X

= 2.54(x)

For example, if there are 4 inches, the number of centimeters in it will be:

= 2.54(x)

= 2.54 × 4

= 10.16 inches
