Answer 1

Given: Board that was 5.28 m long, She used her circular saw to cut 9 off the end of the board.

To find: How many centimeters long was the board after the carpenter cut it?

Solution:

• In the question, we have given that board was 5.28 m long, that means the length of the board is 5.28 m. As we have not provided with the breadth we have to work with length itself.
• So lets convert the length from meter to centimeter.

                  1m = 100 cm,

• So,

                  5.28 m = 5.28 x 100 cm

                               = 528 cm.

• Question says, circular saw is used to cut 9 cm from end of the board.
• As we have converted the length from meter to centimeter, we have to subtract 9 cm from the length.

                 528 cm - 9 cm = 519 cm.

Answer:

              519 centimeters or 5.19 meter long was the board after the carpenter cut it.
