Use the ratio 1 m equals 100 cm a town gets 200 cm of snow one winter how many meters of snow does it get?

Answer 1

To convert centimeters of snow to meters, you can use the conversion ratio of 1 meter equals 100 centimeters.

Given that the town gets 200 cm of snow, you can convert this to meters by dividing the amount in centimeters by 100.

\[ 200 , \text{cm} \div 100 = 2 , \text{m} \]

Therefore, the town gets 2 meters of snow.
