Answer 1

Answer:

a. 70cm to 3cm (70:3)

b. 25cm to 1 cm (25:1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1m=100cm

*convert all meters to centimeters so we can easily simplify

a. 2.1(100)cm:90cm

=2100:90 *both divisible to 3 and 10

=(2100÷3):(90÷3)

=(700÷10):(30÷10)

=70cm:3cm

b. 10(100)cm:40cm

=1000:40 *both divisible to 10 and 4

=(1000÷10):(40÷10)

=(100÷4):(4÷4)

=25cm:1cm
