There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter.1 and 1/4 meters can also be written as 1.25, since 1/4 = 0.25.To find the answer, convert 1.25 meters to centimeters.
1 meter = 100 centimeters1.25 meters = x centimeters1.25 is 125% of 1. In other words, there is a 25% increase.
Now apply this increase to the centimeters side.125% = 1.251.25 • 100 = 125
So 1.25 meters (1 and 1/4 meters) equals 125 centimeters.
The string is 325 centimeters.In order for the string to be 125 centimeters, you need to cut some off.To find how much you need to cut off, subtract 125 from 325.325 - 125 = 200
Answer: In order for your string to be 1 and 1/4 meters, you must cut 200 centimeters off the original 325 centimeter long string.

The surface area of a rectangular prism is the sum of the areas of its faces added together. From the picture, we can see that the prism is constructed of 4 faces that measure 7 cm by 9 cm and 2 faces that measure 7 cm by 7 cm.


The area of one 7 cm by 9 cm face is 63 cm². Together, all four of the faces add up to 252 cm².


The area of one 7 cm by 7 cm face is 49 cm². Together, the two faces add up to 98 cm².


Using these areas, we can say that the total surface area of the prism would be 252 cm² added to 98 cm², or 350 cm².
