Answer 1

Answer:

150 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Cole is 1.7 meters.

Rose is 1.7 meters - 20 centimeters.

Convert 1.7 meters to centimeters.

1.7 × 100 = 170

1.7 meters = 170 centimeters.

170 - 20

= 150

Rose is 150 centimeters.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{ \sf Rose's \ height = 1.5 \ m \ \ \ OR \ \ \ 150 \ cm}$

Given:

Cole's height = 1.7 m

Rose's height = 20 centimetres shorter than Cole

To Find:

Rose's height

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf 1 \ m = 100 \ cm \\ \\ \sf So, \\ \sf 1.7 \ m = 1.7 \times 100 \ cm \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 170 \ cm$

$\therefore \ \sf Cole's \ height = 170 \ cm \\ \\ \sf \implies Rose's \ height = Cole's \ height - 20 \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 170 - 20 \\ \\ \sf \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 150 \: cm$

$\sf 1 \ cm = \frac{1}{100} \ m \\ \\ \sf So, \\ \sf 150 \ cm = 150 \times \frac{1}{100} \ m \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf = \frac{150}{100} \:m \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf = 1.5 \: m$

$\therefore \ \sf Rose's \ height = 1.5 \ m$
