Gunjan Lakhani answered |
Converting \(84 \text{ m} 67 \text{ cm}\) to metres gives \(84.67 \text{ m}\) and \(32 \text{ m} 82 \text{ cm}\) gives \(32.82 \text{ m}\). The subtraction results in \(84.67 - 32.82 = 51.85 \text{ m}\).

Gunjan Lakhani answered |
First, convert \(98 \text{ kL} 928 \text{ L}\) to kL: \(98 + 0.928 = 98.928 \text{ kL}\). Dividing by 54 gives \(98.928 \div 54 = 1.832 \text{ kL}\), which converts to \(1.832 \times 1,000 = 1,832 \text{ L}\).

Converting each unit to kilometres gives \(6 \text{ hm} = 0.6 \text{ km}\), \(3 \text{ dam} = 0.03 \text{ km}\), and \(7 \text{ m} = 0.007 \text{ km}\). Adding these together results in \(14 + 0.6 + 0.03 + 0.007 = 14.637 \text{ km}\).
