To convert a length of 4 meters and 35 centimeters into centimeters, follow these steps:
1. Understand the Units:
- 1 meter (m) is equal to 100 centimeters (cm).
2. Convert the Meters to Centimeters:
- Multiply the number of meters by 100 to convert meters to centimeters.
- For 4 meters: [tex]\( 4 \times 100 = 400 \)[/tex] cm.
3. Add the Remaining Centimeters:
- After converting the meters, add the remaining centimeters to the result.
- You have 35 centimeters remaining.
4. Calculate the Total Length in Centimeters:
- Total length in centimeters = length in centimeters from meters conversion + remaining centimeters.
- So, add the 400 centimeters (from the meters conversion) to the 35 centimeters.
- [tex]\( 400 \, \text{cm} + 35 \, \text{cm} = 435 \, \text{cm} \)[/tex].
Therefore, the length of 4 meters and 35 centimeters can be expressed as 435 centimeters.
