We have been given that Jonathan is using the microscope in lab. He saw a chain of bacteria that was 10 millimeters long. We are asked to find the length of chain of bacteria in centimeters.
We know that 1 millimeter is equal to 0.1 centimeter.
To convert 10 milllimeters into centimeters, we will multiply 10 by 0.1.
Therefore, the chain of the bacteria is 1 cm long.
