How many centimeters of cable does the spool hold?


(4) Manny ran 562.5 meters and his brother ran 75 fewer meters.
How many centimeters did Manny’s brother run?


(5)The mass of a large adult male hippo is about 1,850,000 grams and the mass of a large adult female is about 1,525,000 grams.
What is the difference, in kilograms, between the masses of the adult male and female hippos?

Respuesta :

1) find the relation between cm and m

1 meter = 100 cm

So divide 4250 by 100

4250/100 = 85/2

So there are 85/2 meters


2) now use the relation between m and km

1 km = 1000m

So:

35.25 / 1000 so the answer is c1


3) same as before

1 meter = 100 cm

78.5 m = 78.5 * 100 cm
It's equal to the relation because you're multiplying both sides by 78.5

So then 78.5 * 100 = 7850 cm


4) this one you just subtract:

Manny = 562.5
Brother = Manny - 75

Plug in:
562.5 - 75 = 487.5


5) first find the difference in grams

1,850,000 - 1,525,000 = 325,500

Now 1kg = 1000 g

So 325,500 / 1000 = 325 kg
