Question

A ladybug's length is 2cm. Measure it in meters. And Explain your thinking.

Answer 1

1m = 100cm.  

so since the ladybug is 2cm.  

you divide 2 by 100, which you will get 0.02m (divide by 100 means moving the dot two times to the left. thats why it leaves you 0.02m)

Answer 2

0.02 meters would be the length of the lady bug  because 1 cm is equal to 0.01 meters
