To find how many centimeters are in 1 inch, we can use the known conversions in the table provided.

From the table, we see that:

  • 2 inches = 5.08 centimeters

To find the number of centimeters in 1 inch, we can divide the number of centimeters by the number of inches:

\[ \text{Centimeters per inch} = \frac{5.08 , \text{cm}}{2 , \text{inches}} = 2.54 , \text{cm/inch} \]

Thus, there are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch.

The correct response is: 2.54 centimeters.
