Question

Answer 1

Given:

A clients rash measures 5 cm × 4 cm.

To find:

The measure in inches.

Solution:

We know that,

2.54 cm = 1 inch

1 cm $=\dfrac{1}{2.54}$ inch

1 cm $\approx 0.3937$ inch

Using this conversion, we get

5 cm $=5\times 0.3937$ inches

5 cm $=1.9685$ inches

4 cm $=4\times 0.3937$ inches

4 cm $=1.5748$ inches

Therefore, the measure in inches is 1.9685 inches × 1.5748 inches.
