Question
A piece of rope is 10 m 67 cm long. Another rope is 16 m 32 cm long. By how much is the second rope longer than the first one?
Solution
Length of one rope = 10 m 67 cm
Length of another rope = 16 m 32 cm
Difference in length = 16 m `32/100` cm – 10 m `67/100` cm
= 16.32 m – 10.67 m
= 5.65 m or 5 m 65 cm.
