Question

distance between two stations is 4960 M as observed by Rohini Express this distance in kilometre or centimetre

Answer 1

In kilometers,
1m=1/1000km
4960 m = 4960/1000
=4.960km

In centimeters,
1m=100cm
4960m= 4960×100
=496000cm

Answer 2

Given:

Distance between two stations = 4960 m

We know that,

1 kilometer = 1000 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeter

Hence one kilometer = 1000 x 100 = 100000 centimeter

To convert meter to centimeter, we have to multiply by 100

Hence, 4960 meter = 4960 x 100 = 496000 centimeter

To convert meter to kilometer, we have to divide by 1000

Similarly, 4960 meter = 4960/1000 = 4.96 Kilometer
