Question

Lucy has a strawberry lace that is 36cm long. She needs pieces 18mm long to decorate a cake. How long is the 36cm one in mm

Answer 1

The strawberry lace is 36 cms long.
36 cms = 360 mm
(Because we multiply by 10, when we convert from cm to mm).

Answer 2

Given Lucy has a strawberry lace that is 36cm long.

The question is asking to convert 36 cm to mm.

1 centimeter is equal to 10 millimeters: 1 cm = 10 mm.

The distance 36 in millimeters (mm) is equal to the distance 36 in centimeters (cm) times 10

36 cm = 36x 10=360 mm

36 cm converted to mm is 360 mm.

The strawberry lace that is 36cm long in mm is equal to 360 mm.
