Answers
hello good night
sweet dreams xD.
Cloth left with Tina = 20m 5cm - 4m 50cm
= (19m + 1m + 5cm) - (4m + 50cm)
= (19m + 100cm + 5cm) - (4m + 50cm)
= 19m + 105cm - 4m - 50cm
= 15m + 55cm
= 15m 55cm
- Define direct speech and indirect speech?
Direct speech:
- when the exact word used by a speaker are reproduced within Quotation Marks, it is called Direct speech.
Indirect speech:
- when the substance of a speech is conveyed in the reporter's words, it is called Indirect speech.
●The exact words of the speaker which are put within Quotation Marks or Inverted Commas ("..") is the Reported Speech.
●The verb that introduces the Reported Speech is called the Reporting Verb.
