Question

To convert 3 square feet to square centimeters multiply 3 by 9.29 x 10^-2

Answer 1

It would be 2,787 I think

Answer 2

9.29 x 10^-2 it's wrong. It's 9.29 x 10^2 (positive)

Explanation:

You can "move" or change the measure of everything using some scales based on specific boards.

There's a way to move from the imperial system (yards, feet, inches) to the metric system ( centimeters, meters, kilometers)

1 square foot = 929.03 square centimetre

929.03 can be written with the scientific notation, taking care of the significant figures like
`9.29x10^(2)`

3
`feet^(2)` = 2787.09
`cm^(2)` or
`27.87x10^(2)`
`cm^(2)`
