Respuesta :

HopeA

Answer:

504 millimeters (or 50.4 cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

   Width of key in student calculator = 14 millimeter (1.4 cm)

   Width of key in demonstration calculator = 2.8 cm

Thus, the demonstration calculator's dimensions are twice that of students' (in cm)

Also given, student calculator height as 252 millimeters (25.2 cm)

Thus demonstration calculator height will be twice of that = 50.4 cm (or 504 millimeters)

Answer:

I got 0.494 meter!

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up a proportion to find the height of the demonstration calculator in centimeters.

Next, convert 49.4 centimeters to meters.

Therefore, the demonstration calculator is 0.494 meter tall.
