Answer:
c 0.28 m
Step-by-step explanation:
A construction worker uses a tape measure to find that a pipe is 28/100 of a meter long. Select the decimal that represents the same length.
a 1.28 m
b 2.8 m
c 0.28 m
d 0.028 m
Given:
Length of the pipe in fraction = 28/100
What is the equivalent length in decimal?
28/100
How many hundred can you get in 28
= 0. Remainder 28
Add 0 to 28 which makes it 280
How many hundred can you get in 280
= 2 remainder 80
Add 0 to 80 which makes it 800
How many hundred can you get in 800
= 8 remainder 0
Bring all the quotient together
Therefore,
28/100 m = 0.28 m
