Given:
Andre = 1.7 m tall
Diego = 165 cm tall
Determine who is taller.
Solution:
In order to determine who is taller, we simply need to change 165 cm to m, to do so we use the general conversion method.
= (165 cm)(1m/100 cm)
The units cm cancels.
= 165 m/100
= 1.65 m
It can be seen that Andre is taller that Diego by .05 m.
Final answer:
Andre is taller than Diego.
