To convert centimeters to meters, we divide by 100 since 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters.
So, to find the number of meters of snow the town gets, we divide 200 centimeters by 100.
200 centimeters / 100 = 2 meters
Therefore, the town gets 2 meters of snow.
To convert centimeters to meters, we need to divide the number of centimeters by 100, since there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter.
In this case, the town gets 200 centimeters of snow. To find out how many meters of snow that is, we divide 200 by 100.
200 / 100 = 2
Therefore, the town gets 2 meters of snow.
