Question

Length of a roll of tape is 1 m 60 cm. If 85 cm is used from it, how much is left on the roll?​

Answer 1

To find:

how much roll tape is left

Given :

total length of tape = 1m 60cm

total length used = 85 cm

Always remember:

• 1 metre = 100 cm

Solution:

1m = 100 cm

so, 1m 60 cm = 100+60 cm = 160 cm

so, total tape used = 85 cm

so, total tape left = 160-85 cm = 75cm

Answer 2

the length of roll is used 85 cm

the left of the roll

1 meter = 100 centimetres

160

- 85

the left of the roll is 75 cm
