Answer:

C. 8.56cm

Explanation:

Since we are to get the difference of cord length in centimeter, there fore we will have to convert the one yard and one metre length of wires to centimeters.

For 1m length of cord

1m = 100cm

For 1yard length of cord

1yard = 91.44cm

Difference in cord length = 100cm - 91.44cm

= 8.56cm
