You can put this solution on YOUR website!
diameter of the table cloth on top of the table is 1.1 meters.
height of the table is 550 milli-meters.
550 millimeters is equal to .55 meters.

this means you need to add .55 meters to the diameter of the table cloth on both ends.

the diameter of the table cloth is therefore equal to 1.1 meters + 1.1 meters = 2.2 meters.

that's what i think.
