Answer 2

Concept: A system of measurements is called the metric system. It is employed in calculations and research across the globe. Here are some instances of measurements made with the metric system:

The unit used to measure lengths and distances is the metre. In daily life, we use this unit to measure things like the length of a piece of clothing, the distance from school to home, etc.

You may have noticed that the bag of your favourite food has a weight listed on it. 250 grammes of potato chips, as an illustration. The unit of weight used here is the gramme.

Similar to this, the bottle of your preferred beverage has a volume indication (for example, 250 millilitres of cola). The unit of volume used here is the millilitre.

To find: 7486 cm - 8597 mm

Solution:

1 cm = $\frac{1}{100}$ m

7486 cm = $\frac{7486}{100}$ m

7486 cm = 74.86 m

1 mm = $\frac{1}{1000}$ m

8597 mm = $\frac{8597}{1000}$ m

8597 mm = 8.597 m

Now, 74.86 m - 8.597 m = 66.263 m

Hence, 7486 cm is  greater than 8597 mm by 66.263 m.
