What length, in centimeters, is equivalent to a length of 51 meters? (1 meter = 100 centimeters)

Correct answer: C. 5,100

  • A. 0.051
  • B. 0.51
  • C. 5,100
  • D. 51,000

Explanation

The correct answer is 5,100 centimeters. To convert meters to centimeters, you multiply the number of meters by 100 because there are 100 centimeters in a meter. Thus, 51 meters equals 5,100 centimeters. Options A and B incorrectly involve dividing by 100 instead of multiplying. Option D is the conversion of meters to millimeters, as there are 1,000 millimeters in a meter, not the required centimeters.
