Answer:
The audio cable is 1.59 m long.
Solution:
Given, the length of audio cable is 15.9 dm
To find, the length of the cable in meters.
One decimeter is [tex]10^{-1}[/tex] meters, i.e. 1 dm = [tex]10^{-1} m = \frac{1}{10} m[/tex]
So, in order to convert decimeter to meter, we have to multiply the given decimeter value by [tex]10^{-1} m[/tex] or [tex]\frac{1}{10} m[/tex]
Length of the audio cable is [tex]15.9\times\frac{1}{10} = 1.59 meters[/tex]
Or [tex]15.9\times10^{-1}=1.59 meters[/tex]
[tex]\therefore[/tex] the audio cable is 1.59 m long.
