Ted wants to make an input- output table with numbers of meters as input values and numbers of centimeters as output values. What rule should Ted use for his table?
The rule for converting from metres to centimetres is that one metre equals 100 centimetres.
thank you
To determine the rule for Ted's input-output table, we need to understand the relationship between meters and centimeters. Here's how you can figure it out:
1. Recall the conversion factor: 1 meter = 100 centimeters. This tells us that when we multiply a measurement in meters by 100, we get the equivalent measurement in centimeters.
2. Let's assume the input value in Ted's table represents the number of meters (m), and the output value represents the number of centimeters (cm). Now, to convert meters to centimeters, the rule Ted should use is:
Output value = Input value × 100
Therefore, for each input value (meters) in the table, Ted can find the corresponding output value (centimeters) by multiplying the input value by 100.
