Question 36

Step 1: Remember the basic fact:

\(1\ \text{metre} = 100\ \text{centimetres}\)

Step 2: Now we have x metres, which means x times 1 metre.

\(x \times 1\ \text{metre} = x\ \text{metres}\)

Step 3: Multiply both sides of Step 1 by \(x\).

Left side: \(x \times 1\ \text{metre} = x\ \text{metres}\)

Right side: \(x \times 100\ \text{centimetres} = 100x\ \text{centimetres}\)

Step 4: Therefore,

\(x\ \text{metres} = 100x\ \text{centimetres}\)

So, fill in the blank with \(100x\).
