Liz and Alana each participated in the high jump at the track meet. Liz's high jump was 1 meter.Alana's high jump was 132 cm. Who jumped higher?How much higher? please explain work
1 meter = 100 centimeters = the height of Liz's jump.
132 is greater than 100, so Alana's jump was higher.
I hope this helps! :)
I did all the work on a piece of paper. So, if you convert 1 meter into cm it would be 100 cm.
1 meter= 100 cm
But, because Alana's jump was 132 cm and Liz's jump was 1 meter or 100 cm Alana's jump was higher.
132 cm > 100 cm
So, Alana's Jump was 32 cm higher than Liz's jump.
