Answer:

22 centimeters

Explanation:

1. See how many centimeters are in a meter:

There is 100 centimeters in one meter

2. Multiply each number by 100 to convert the meters to centimeters

0.98 x 100= 98

0.76 x 100 = 76

3. Subtract to find the difference

98 - 76 = 22

Hence, the blue string is 22 centimeters longer than the yellow string.

have great night! :D
