Question 1182755
<br>
When Dan measures the length as 23.75m, the length he is actually measuring is 23.75 times 1.04m, which is 24.7m.<br>
When Jane measures the length, each actual meter measures 0.95m, so the length in meters by her measuring tape is 24.7/0.95 = 26m.<br>
ANSWER: Jane's measurement will be 26m.<br>
Alternatively....<br>
Jane's measuring tape is shorter than Dan's by a factor of 0.95/1.04.  That means when measuring any object with the two tapes, Jane's measurement will be larger than Dan's by a factor of 1.04/.95.<br>
ANSWER: Jane's measurement in meters will be {{{23.75*(1.04/0.95) = 26}}}<br>
