Question

Adhesive tape made from fabric has a tensile strength of not less than 20.41 kg/2.54 cm of width. Reduce these quantities to grams and millimeters.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{20,410 \text{ grams}}{254\text{ mm}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that adhesive tape made from fabric has a tensile strength of not less than 20.41 kg/2.54 cm of width. We are asked to reduce these quantities to grams and millimeters.

We know 1 kg equals 1000 grams and 1 cm equals 10 mm.

$\frac{20.41\text{ kg}}{\text{2.54 cm}}$

$\frac{20.41\text{ kg}}{\text{2.54 cm}}\times \frac{\text{1 cm}}{\text{10 mm}}$

$\frac{20.41\text{ kg}}{2.54\times\text{10 mm}}$

$\frac{20.41\text{ kg}}{254\text{ mm}}$

$\frac{20.41\text{ kg}}{254\text{ mm}}\times \frac{\text{1000 grams}}{\text{1 kg}}$

$\frac{20.41\times \text{1000 grams}}{254\text{ mm}}$

$\frac{20,410 \text{ grams}}{254\text{ mm}}$

Therefore, our required measurement would be $\frac{20,410 \text{ grams}}{254\text{ mm}}$.
