Question

A clients rash measures 5cm x 4cm how much does this measure in inches

Answer 1

Given:

A clients rash measures 5 cm × 4 cm.

To find:

The measure in inches.

Solution:

We know that,

2.54 cm = 1 inch

1 cm
`=(1)/(2.54)` inch

1 cm
`\approx 0.3937` inch

Using this conversion, we get

5 cm
`=5* 0.3937` inches

5 cm
`=1.9685` inches

4 cm
`=4* 0.3937` inches

4 cm
`=1.5748` inches

Therefore, the measure in inches is 1.9685 inches × 1.5748 inches.
