2 meters = _ inches

Word box:
68.7, 7.87, 22.5, 78.7, 6.87, 19.1

Answer 1

To convert 2 meters to inches, we can first convert meters to centimeters, and then convert centimeters to inches.

1 meter = 100 centimeters, so: 2 meters = 2 * 100 = 200 centimeters.

Next, we use the conversion from centimeters to inches: 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters, so: 200 centimeters ÷ 2.54 centimeters/inch = 78.74 inches.

Rounding this to the nearest tenth gives us 78.7 inches.

Therefore, the answer is: 2 meters = 78.7 inches.
