Question

Sabeena’s pen measures 144 millimeters long. Her pencil measures 18 centimeters long. How many centimeters longer is Sabeena’s pencil than her pen?
Enter the correct answer in the box.

Answer 1

Answer:

3.6 cm or 36mm

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that there are 10 millimetres in a centimetre. So we can convert the 18cm into millimetres to make it easy to subtract

18cm*10=180mm

now take the pencil length subtracted by the length of the pen.

180mm-144mm=36mm  

now if you want the answer in cm, convert it by dividing the answer by 10

36/10=3.6cm

Hope This Helps :)

Answer 2
