To find:
The measure in inches.
Solution:
We know that,
2.54 cm = 1 inch
1 cm [tex]=\dfrac{1}{2.54}[/tex] inch
1 cm [tex]\approx 0.3937[/tex] inch
Using this conversion, we get
5 cm [tex]=5\times 0.3937[/tex] inches
5 cm [tex]=1.9685[/tex] inches
4 cm [tex]=4\times 0.3937[/tex] inches
4 cm [tex]=1.5748[/tex] inches
Therefore, the measure in inches is 1.9685 inches × 1.5748 inches.
