Ravi has 214 meters of rope. He gives 93 centimeters of the rope to his brother. How much rope does he have left?
1 answer:
Answer:
213.07 m
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to convert to the same units before subtracting.
The length of Ravi's rope is 214 meters.
If he gave 93 centimeters to his brother, then he didn't give up to a meter.
The reason is that, 100cm makes 1m.
Therefore 93cm makes 0.93m
We now set up the subtraction problem:
Therefore Ravi has 213.07m of rope left.
