Math Problem Statement

20 cm² to 100 mm²

Solution

The image you provided appears to be a problem related to unit conversion, where you are tasked with converting an area from 20 cm² to 100 mm².

To solve this:

  1. First, recall the conversion between centimeters and millimeters:
    1cm=10mm1 \, \text{cm} = 10 \, \text{mm}.

  2. Since the problem involves area, remember to square the conversion factor. Therefore:
    1cm2=(10mm)2=100mm21 \, \text{cm}^2 = (10 \, \text{mm})^2 = 100 \, \text{mm}^2.

  3. Now, multiply the given area (20 cm²) by 100 (since 1 cm² = 100 mm²): 20cm2×100=2000mm220 \, \text{cm}^2 \times 100 = 2000 \, \text{mm}^2

Thus, 20cm2=2000mm220 \, \text{cm}^2 = 2000 \, \text{mm}^2.

Would you like further details or have any questions about this process? Here are some related questions you can explore:

  1. How do you convert from cm² to m²?
  2. What happens when we convert from inches² to cm²?
  3. Why do we square the conversion factor for area units?
  4. How would you convert between cubic units like cm³ and mm³?
  5. Can we use this method to convert between other units of measurement for different physical quantities?

Tip: Always ensure you're working with the right power of the conversion factor when dealing with areas (square) or volumes (cube).
