Answer 1

From the table provided, we see that:

• 2 inches = 5.08 centimeters
• Therefore, to find how many centimeters are in 1 inch, we can calculate:

\[ \text{Centimeters in 1 inch} = \frac{5.08 \text{ cm}}{2} = 2.54 \text{ cm} \]

So, there are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch.

The correct answer is 2.54 centimeters.
