Question

In her report of an investigation, shira states that the height of a bush is 0.65 meters. Nathaniel states that the height of the same bush is 65 centemeters. How do the statements of the two students compare?

Answer 1

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The statements of the two students are the same, just that they used different units for the height.

100 centimeters is equivalent to 1 meter

65 centimeters would be equivalent to 65 x 1/100

                       = 0.65 meters

Hence, 0.65 meters and 65 centimeters are the same height but with different units.
