Question

The length of the flower garden is 529 centimeters what is its length in meters

Answer 1

The length of the flower garden is 5.29 meters.

Further Explanation

Given:

The length of the flower garden is 529 cm. Convert this length into meters!

We know that:

$\boxed {1 m = 100 cm }$ or

$\boxed {1 cm = \frac{1}{100} m }$

so it would be:

$\boxed {\frac{1 m}{100cm} = \frac{1 m}{1 m} }$

If we look on the right side of the equation, it is now has the same quantity  in the numerator and denominator, so the value would be 1.

$\boxed {\frac{1 m}{100 cm} = 1}$

the above equation called a conversion factor.

So to find out how much is 529 centimeters in meters, we will multiply 529 with the conversion factor:

$\boxed {=529 cm \times\frac{1 m}{100 cm} }\\\boxed {= 5.29 cm }$

because the cm occurs in both denominator and numerator, so we can cancel out.

The result is 5.29 meters.
