A construction worker uses a tape measure to find that a pipe is 28
100
of a meter long. Select the decimal that represents the same length.

c 0.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A construction worker uses a tape measure to find that a pipe is 28/100 of a meter long. Select the decimal that represents the same length.

a 1.28 m

b 2.8 m

c 0.28 m

d 0.028 m

Given:

Length of the pipe in fraction = 28/100

What is the equivalent length in decimal?

28/100

How many hundred can you get in 28

= 0. Remainder 28

Add 0 to 28 which makes it 280

How many hundred can you get in 280

= 2 remainder 80

Add 0 to 80 which makes it 800

How many hundred can you get in 800

= 8 remainder 0

Bring all the quotient together

Therefore,

28/100 m = 0.28 m
