Question

Convert 1.85 m to inches. Note: 1 in. = 25.4 mm.

Answer 1

Answer: 72.83 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 1 inch= 25.4 mm   (1)

As we know, 1 meter = 1000 mm

i.e. 1 mm= $\dfrac{1}{1000}\ m=0.001\ m$

Thus , $25.4\ mm= 25.4\times0.001\ m=0.0254\ m$   (2)

From (1) and (2) , 1 inch = 0.0254 m

i.e.  $1\ m =\dfrac{1}{0.0254}=39.3700787402\approx39.37\ inches$

Then, $`1.85\ m=1.85\times39.37=72.834\approx72.83\ inches$

∴ 1.85 m = 72.83 inches
