You would divide 100 by 4 first because according to PEMDAS (If you learned it already), you would have to go from left to right, and multiplication/division comes before addition/subtraction--so you do that math first--and you would get 25. Then you would do the multiplication because, like I said from before, Multiplication/division comes before addition/subtraction, so you then multiply 25 by 3 to get 75. After this, you do the math from the left to the right, and adding -9 to 75 is the same as 75 minus 9, so you would get 66, and that is your answer.
Using first the customary ruler and then the metric ruler, measure the length of the side of the wooden block. Remember to estimate to one place value beyond the rulers’ gradations.
