Question

You need a shelf for a small space in your house, so you make a measurement with your meter stick and head to the store. Once there, you find that the dimension of the shelves you want is given in cm. If your space measured 0.8 m, and the shelves at the store measure 30 cm, answer the following questions: 1) How many meters wide is the shelf you want to buy? 2) Will it fit in your house? yes no

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 0.3 m

2. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

Measurement of space = 0.8m

measurement of the shelves = 30 cm = 0.3 m as 1 m = 100 cm

So for 30 cm it would be

= 0.30 ÷ 100

= 0.3 m

Based on the above information,

1. The number of meters wide for the shelf to buy is 0.3 m

2 And yes it is fitted in the house
