Question

The length of black ribbon is 14m 35 cm the length of white ribbon is 12 m which ribbon has small length and how much?

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of the black ribbon is 14m 35 cm the length of the white ribbon is 12 m. The white ribbon is small in length and it is by 2m  35cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

      length of black ribbon = 14m 35 cm

      length of white ribbon = 12m

• convert to one unit

       1 cm = 0.01m  so 35cm = 0.35m

now we can write

     length of black ribbon = 14m+0.35m = 14.35m

here black ribbon is longer because its value is higher than that of white ribbon. white ribbon is small one.

• find the difference

difference = length of black ribbon - length of white ribbon

                 = 14.35 - 12 = 2.35m = 2m 35cm

white ribbon is shorter by 2m 35cm.
