Question

hakeem's frog made three quick jumps. the first was 1 meter. the second jump was 85 centimeters. The third jump was 400 millimeters. what was the total length of the frogs three jumps?

Answer 1

To add the jumps made by three frogs, you have to convert the units into a specific unit for uniformity. Let us use meter. For every 1 meter, there are 100 centimeter and 1000 millimeters. Divide 85 by 100 and 400 by 1000.

 

1 + 85/100 + 400/1000 = 2.25 meters
