Arithmetic Reasoning

The Arithmetic Reasoning section of the ASVAB consists of word problems.  One of the topics that appears on this section is measurement.  I remind the students that I tutor for the ASVAB of the importance of studying conversions in measurement.  I present them with the necessary formula sheets to learn all the necessary measurement conversions including metric measurement.  My ASVAB students need to remember the conversions for metric measurements including millimeters, centimeters, and kilometers.

Today’s question is:

How many centimeters are there in 5 meters?

In order to answer this question, it is essential to know how many centimeters are in a meter?

Do you know the answer?  I will present the answer tomorrow
