Answer:

5 meters.

Explanation:

To find the difference between meter and centimeter, base it on the power of digit-to-decimal or digit-to-hundreds place. Simplified, to find a meter and centimeter difference, divide the centimeter by 100.

Example number: Let's say 35 is your centimeters. Your meters would be 0.35.
