Answer 1

Question:

A butterfly flew 743 cm and landed on a rose. Then the butterfly flew another 567 cm to go to a daisy. How many meters did the butterfly travel?

Answer:

the butterfly travelled 13.1 metres

Explanation:

Given:

Distance travelled by the butterfly to reach the rose = 743 cm

Distance travelled by the butterfly to reach the daisy = 567 cm

To Find:

Distance travelled by the butterfly = ?

Solution :

Distance travelled by the butterfly

= Distance travelled by the butterfly to reach the rose + Distance travelled by the butterfly to reach the daisy

Distance travelled by the butterfly = 743 + 567

Distance travelled by the butterfly = 1310 cm

We know that 1 cm is 0.01 metres

Then 1310 metres =
`0.01 * 1310` = 13.1 metres
