A pool measures 100 meters by 100 meters. A toddler, inside the pool, throws a ball and it lands 60 centimeters from one edge of the pool. How far is the ball from the opposite edge of the pool?
Since it is only side to side, we only need 1 side's measurement which is 100 meters or 10,000 centimeters. Subtract 60 centimeters from that and you get 9,940 centimeters to the other side.
