Explanation

The chapter establishes that 1 metre = 100 centimetres. Therefore, half metre (1/2 m) = 50 cm and quarter metre (1/4 m) = 25 cm. The chapter also shows that 1 m = 1/2 m + 1/2 m and 1 m = 1/4 m + 1/4 m + 1/4 m + 1/4 m.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: 1 metre = 100 centimetres

  2. Step 2: 1/2 m = 100 ÷ 2 = 50 cm

  3. Step 3: 1/4 m = 100 ÷ 4 = 25 cm
