- Eduardo midió 100 centímetros más 3/5 de metro

¿Quiénes tienen la misma estatura?

A) Maximiliano y Adriana
B) Joaquín y Maximiliano
C) Beto y Eduardo
D) Eduardo y Joaquín

Answer :

The answer is option d - Eduardo and Joaquin. Both have a height of 160 cm.

To compare the heights, let's convert all measurements to centimeters:

1. Joaquin: 1.6 m = 1.6 × 100 cm = 160 cm

2. Adriana: 1 meter 64 centimeters = 100 + 64 cm = 164 cm

3. Beto: 1 meter and [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] = 100 + [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] × 100 cm = 150 cm

4. Maximiliano: 168 centimeters = 168 cm

5. Eduardo: 100 centimeters plus [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] of a meter = 100 + [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] × 100 cm = 160 cm

Now, comparing their heights:

- Joaquin: 160 cm

- Adriana: 164 cm

- Beto: 150 cm

- Maximiliano: 168 cm

- Eduardo: 160 cm

We can see that both Joaquin and Eduardo have the same height of 160 cm, so the answer is:
