Question

The distance between two station of Delhi Metro is is 2.4 60 kilometre. Express this distance in metre and centimeters.

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance between two places is 43.65km .

So, We need to convert into metre and cm.

First let's find what's the conversation factor to turn kilometers to meters and centimeters.

We know that,

Kilo means 1000 .

So basically, When we say 1 km, it means The distance is 1000 meters.

Thus ,We can say 1 Km = 1000m .

To convert a distance in kilometers to meters, we multiply it by 1000 .

Centi means 1/100

So basically, When we say 1 cm, it means The distance is 1/100 or 0.01meters.

Thus ,We can say 1 cm = 0.01m .

Now, 1m = 100cm.

From the above findings ,

1Km = 1000m = 1000( 100) cm = 10^5cm .

So ,

43 . 65 km

= 43 .65 * 1000m

= 43650 * 100 cm.
