Ellis Grew By 9 Centimeters In The Past, And Is Now 1.4 Meters Tall. How Tall In Meters Was Ellis Last Year?

Ellis grew by 9 centimeters in the past, and is now 1.4 meters tall. How tall in meters was Ellis last year?

 

Answer:

1. 31 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 1 meter = 100 cm.

So converting 1.4 m to cm = 140 cm.

Since she grew 9 cm in the past therefore 140 - 9 = 131 cm.

Coverting it back to m: 131 cm = 1.31 m.

Hope this helps!
