Answer:
The Monument is taller than the child by 174.125 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The Monument in Santiago measures 175 meters. A child measures 87.5 centimeters.
Step 1
Convert child's height to meters
100cm = 1 m
87.5 cm = x
Cross Multiply
100cm × x = 87.5 cm × 1m
x = 87.5 cm × 1m/100cm
x = 0.875m
Step 2
How much is the Monument taller than the child?
This is calculated by subtracting Child's height from Monument height
= 175 m - 0.875m
= 174.125 m
Therefore, the Monument is taller than the child by 174.125 m
