1 answer

To find out what percent of a meter is 23 centimeters, we need to divide the number of centimeters by the total number of centimeters in a meter and then multiply by 100.

23 centimeters ÷ 100 centimeters = 0.23.

We multiply 0.23 by 100:

0.23 × 100 = 23.

Therefore, 23 centimeters is 23% of a meter.
