------------------------------------------------ What is the rule?

Convert the following measurements:

- 100 cm to meters
- 250 cm to meters
- 1500 cm to meters

Answer :

250 cm is equivalent to 2.5 meters and 1500 cm is equivalent to 15 meters.

The rule for converting centimeters to meters is that there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Therefore, to convert any length from centimeters to meters, one divides the length in centimeters by 100.

Given the conversions:

- 100 cm = 1 m (which is the standard conversion)

- 250 cm = ? m

- 1500 cm = ? m

Let's calculate the conversions:

For 250 cm to meters:

[tex]\[ 250 \text{ cm} \times \frac{1 \text{ m}}{100 \text{ cm}} = \frac{250}{100} \text{ m} = 2.5 \text{ m} \][/tex]

For 1500 cm to meters:

[tex]\[ 1500 \text{ cm} \times \frac{1 \text{ m}}{100 \text{ cm}} = \frac{1500}{100} \text{ m} = 15 \text{ m} \][/tex]

There are 100 cm(centimeters) in a m(meter).
So, to solve this, we divide 250 by 100. this gives us 2.5meters.
1500÷100=15meters
The rule is m=cm÷100.
