A piece of string is 120 centimeters long.
How long would the piece of string measure in meters?
120cm * 1m/100cm = 120/100 = 1.20 m
1.20m
To find out how long the piece of string would measure in meters, you need to convert centimeters to meters.
There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Therefore, to convert centimeters to meters, you divide the length in centimeters by 100.
Let's calculate:
120 centimeters / 100 = 1.2 meters
So, the piece of string would measure 1.2 meters.
