Explain how to convert measurements in the metric system

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

You can use similar processes when converting from smaller to larger units. When converting a larger unit to a smaller one, you multiply; when you convert a smaller unit to a larger one, you divide.

Example look at the pic please 7,225 cm = ___ m

Meters are larger than centimeters, so you expect your answer to be less than 7,225.

Using the factor label method, write 7,225 cm as a fraction and use unit fractions to convert it to m.

Cancel similar units, multiply, and simplify.

7,225 centimeters = meters

Two angles are supplementary. The larger angle is 15 more than 10 times the smaller angle. FInd the measure of each angle.
garik1379 [7]

\text{Larger angle} =x\\\\\text{Smaller angle} =y\\ \\\text{According to the condition,}\\\\x=10y+15\\\\\text{The two angles are supplementary, so their  sum is}~ 180^{\circ} \\\\x+y=180\\\\\implies 10y+15 +y = 180\\\\\implies 11y = 180-15\\\\\implies 11y=165\\\\\implies y = \dfrac{165}{11}\\\\\implies y = 15\\\\\text{So,} ~x  =180-15 = 165\\\\\text{Hence the larger angle is}~ 165^{\circ}~ \text{and the smaller angle is }15^{\circ}
