Sure, let's express 20 centimeters in both meters and kilometers.
1. Conversion of centimeters to meters:
- We know that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters.
- To convert centimeters to meters, we divide the number of centimeters by 100.
- So, for 20 centimeters:
[tex]\[
\text{Meters} = \frac{20 \text{ cm}}{100} = 0.2 \text{ meters}
\][/tex]
2. Conversion of meters to kilometers:
- We know that 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters.
- To convert meters to kilometers, we divide the number of meters by 1000.
- So, for 0.2 meters:
[tex]\[
\text{Kilometers} = \frac{0.2 \text{ meters}}{1000} = 0.0002 \text{ kilometers}
\][/tex]
Hence, 20 centimeters is equal to 0.2 meters or 0.0002 kilometers.
