Answer: \(\text{77 mm}=7.7\times10^2\text{ meters}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The length of a sticky note measures 77 millimeters.

We know that 1 meters =100 cm

and 1 cm = 10 mm

Then , \(1\text{ meters}=10\times100\text{ mm}=1000\text{ mm}\)

\(\Rightarrow\ \text{1 mm}=\dfrac{1}{1000}\text{ meters}\)

Now, the  length of a sticky note will be :-

\(\text{77 mm}=\dfrac{77}{1000}\text{ meters}\\\\=0.077\text{ meters}\\\\= 7.7\times10^2\text{ meters}\)
