Answer:

$\frac{23}{4}$ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth of the fish to the surface of water at 1:00 pm = 2 $\frac{1}{2}$ feet

= $\frac{5}{2}$ feet

The depth of the fish to its initial position at 4:00 pm = 3 $\frac{1}{4}$ feet

= $\frac{13}{4}$ feet

The position of the fish with respect to the water's surface at 4:00 pm = the depth of the fish to the surface of water at 1:00 pm + the depth of the fish to its initial position at 4:00 pm

= $\frac{5}{2}$ + $\frac{13}{4}$

= $\frac{10 + 13}{4}$

= $\frac{23}{4}$

The position of the fish with respect to the water's surface at 4:00 pm is $\frac{23}{4}$ feet.

2.54 cm / 1 in. = 100 cm / x in. show the work

2.45 cm= 1 in. so 100 cm must equal 39.37 in. because you already know 2.45 cm equals 1 inch and 1 metre equals 100 cm and 1 metre is equal to 39.37.
