<PRE><B>Question 141860</B>
Seven inches are equivalent to 17.78 cm.  Find the equation converting length in cm to length in inches.  What is the length in inches of a 96.2 cm bar?
----------------------
17.78 cm = 7 in
1 cm = (7/17.78) in
--------------------------
96.2 cm = 96.2(7/17.78) in
96.2 cm = 37.874 in
======================
