Question

2. The lengths of two insects are given below.

Answer 1

The conversion rate of millimetres to centimetres is 10 = 1 (Meaning 10 millimetres will equal one centimetre).

Knowing this, we can convert the centimetres to millimetres by multiplying by 10.

30 x 10 = 300

So a walking stick is 300 millimetres long.

To find the difference, we need to subtract the larger number from the smaller one.

300 - 10 = 290

Therefore the answer is 290mm.

Hope this helps! :)
