Final answer:

To calculate the price of 300 centimeters of streamers, convert centimeters to meters and then multiply by the price per meter, resulting in a total cost of $0.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the price of 300 centimeters of streamers, we first need to convert centimeters to meters, as the price is given in dollars per meter. There are 100 centimeters in a meter, so 300 centimeters is equal to 300 / 100 = 3 meters. With the streamers priced at $0.09 per meter, we can calculate the cost of 3 meters of streamers by multiplying the price per meter by the number of meters: $0.09 \times 3 meters = $0.27.

Answer:

Please review the post.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll interpret "\$0.09$0.09dollar sign, 0, point, 09 per meter" as $0.09/meter

300300300 cm? (Is this number correct?)

There are 100 cm in a meter: (1 meter/100 cm)

(300300300 cm)*(1 meter/100 cm) = 300300.3 meters

(300300.3 meters)*($0.09/meter) = $27,027.03

Either the cm number is incorrect, or this is one heck of a party. Plan early:

300300.3 meters is 186.6 miles.
