First you have to figure out the lwngth of a meter prferably in feet

@TheBestofNacho Do you work with metres or feet in your community?

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

Mostly feet

OpenStudy (mathmate):

ok, then we have to visual 1 metre as 3.31 ft. A person is about 6 feet, or about 1.7-1.8 metre (abbreviated as m.)

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

I still don't get it sorry I'm not very good at math

OpenStudy (mathmate):

I am not talking about math right now. I am just telling you how to visualize objects in terms of feet, with which you're more familiar, and converted to metres, with which you're probably less familiar. Do you want just the answer?

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

Yes

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Sigh, that's probably why you have trouble with math!

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

no I'm good at math but in this subject of math

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

measurement

OpenStudy (mathmate):

In math, you have to learn to understand the problem, then learn \(how\) to solve it. If you don't, math will always be difficult. If you are not interested in even understanding the problem, with the excuse that "I'm not good at math", then you'll never be good at it.

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

I'm trying to understand It's just not coming to mind

OpenStudy (mathmate):

But earlier I explained to you that the height of a person is between 1.7 to 1.8 m, and you told me you're not good at math. This means that you were not following what I was trying to tell you.

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

The answer is C. The height of a classroom door

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Before we go further, you need to do something that you should have done before: check that the question and answer choices are indeed correct. Can you do that now?

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

am I correct or not

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

it's either C. The height of a one-story house or D. The height of a classroom door

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

am I correct

OpenStudy (mathmate):

To tell you the truth, none of these answers is near 1 m. That is why I am asking you to double-check the question and the answers.

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

B. The distance from your home to your school

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Do I understand that you are not willing to check the questions/answers?

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

I know I'm not correct *sigh*

OpenStudy (mathmate):

As I said, there is no correct answer for the question. If you're willing to check for typos in the questions/answers, we may look for the "closest" answer. The question could have been find distance closest to 2 m, or the answer could have been the width of the classroom door, etc. All these are important. So could you double check question/answers? Please?

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

You lost me when you said there is no correct answer All I know is that I need the answer and I need it fast or else I'm gonna be in major trouble with my mom for not getting 5 lessons done today.

Since you're not ready to check the question/answers you posted, I guess we'll stop here, and hope someone else can help you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know. Sorry but I'm not good in math.

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

that's ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you repost the question for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe that you might have excluded or misspelled a word

OpenStudy (thebestofnacho):

The answer was D guys!!!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You probably meant widtg ather than height because a door height cant be 1metter because many people are taller than
