Question

Nestor need 750 centimeters of rope . Rope comes in lengths of 4 1/2 meters and 9 meters at the hardware store. Which length of rope should Newton buy ?

Answer 1

9 meter.

Step-by-step explanation: 4 1/2 meters is too short, he would have to buy 2 lengths. 4 1/2 meters is 450 cm while 9 meters is 900 cm, if he gets the 900 cm length he can just cut off the excess to use later.
