Answer to Problem 70P

The length of a human body is 183cm_.

Explanation of Solution

In this case, the given measurement value is 6ft.

Convert 1ft to metric prefix form of m,

  1ft=0.3048m.

Conclusion:

Substitute 0.3048m for ft to the given measurement,

    6ft=6×0.3048m=1.8288m=1.83m×100cm1m=183cm

Therefore, the length of a human body is 183cm_.
