Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

We know 1 m = 100 cm Length of Dhanu’s jump = 3 m 40 cm = (3×100) cm + 40 cm = 300 cm + 40 cm = 340 cm Since Gurjeet’s jump is 20 cm less than that Dhanu’s jump, we will subtract 20 cm from 340 cm to find the length of Gurjeet’s jump.

340cm - 020cm 320cm Now, Length of Gurjeet’s jump = 320 cm = 300 cm + 20 cm = (300÷100) m + 20 cm = 3 m + 20 cm = 3 m 20 cm Gurjeet’s jump is 3 m 20 cm long. Since Gopi’s jump is 5 cm less than Gurjeet’s jump, we will subtract 5 cm from 320 cm to find the length of Gopi’s jump.

320cm - 005cm 315cm Now, Length of Gopi’s jump = 315 cm = 300 cm + 15 cm = (300÷100) m + 15 cm = 3 m + 15 cm = 3 m 15 cm Gopi’s jump is 3 m 15 cm long.
