Q. Kingsley knows that 11 inch is about 22.5454 centimeters. He wants to write an equation he can use to convert any given length in inches (i) (i) to centimeters (c) (c) .\newlineHow should Kingsley write his equation?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) c=2.54i c=2.54 i \newline(B) i=c2.54 i=\frac{c}{2.54} \newline(C) ci=2.54 \frac{c}{i}=2.54
  1. Find Relationship: Kingsley needs to find the relationship between inches and centimeters. We know that 11 inch is equal to 2.542.54 centimeters. This means that the number of centimeters is equal to the number of inches multiplied by 2.542.54.
  2. Write Equation: To write the equation for converting inches to centimeters, we use the given conversion factor. If ii represents the length in inches, then the length in centimeters, cc, is found by multiplying ii by 2.542.54.
  3. Conversion Equation: The equation that represents this conversion is c=2.54×ic = 2.54 \times i. This equation means that for every inch, there are 2.542.54 centimeters. So, if Kingsley has a length in inches and wants to find out how many centimeters it is, he would use this equation.
