Because 1 metre = 100 cm so that 12 metres = 1200 cm and, as even a child knows, 1200 is bigger than 120!
First convert the metric so that both measurements are in the same scale: 2 m= 200 cm or 120 cm= 1.2 m. Then multiply to find the area like you would normally: 2 m*1.2 m=2.4 m^2 or 120 cm*200 cm= 240 cm^2
1.2 metres or about 4 feet
Convert everything to the same unit; then you can easily compare. As a reminder, 1 cm = 10 mm.
2400 cm equals 2.400 meter, so 2400 is bigger.
1 meter = 100 cm 120 cm = 1.2 m 12m>1.2m = true. 12 meters is greater.
120 cm is bigger than 1 meter which equals 100 cm
1 cm = 10 mm 120 cm = 1200 mm so 120 cm and 1200 mm is equal
there are 100cm in a meter, so now it is your turn to do the math
320cm is bigger because it equals 125.984 inches.
To compare the two measurements, we need to convert them to the same unit. Converting 12 meters to centimeters gives us 1200cm. Now, to find out how many times larger 12m is to 10cm, we divide 1200cm by 10cm, which equals 120. Therefore, 12m is 120 times larger than 10cm.
1,213.8 centimeters.
a meter is bigger it is 100 cm
50 cm is one third of 1 1/2 metres.
Because 1 metre = 100 cm so that 12 metres = 1200 cm and, as even a child knows, 1200 is bigger than 120!
Multiply the value in metres by 100.
Multiplying 120 cm by 4.5 will yield a result of 540 cm, or 5.4 m. We can do this in steps: 120+120+120+120 = 480, and one half of 120 is 60, so add that on for the 0.5, to get 480+60=540.
