Explanation / Answer
17. One inch = 2.54 cm or 25.4mm
21.59 cm wide and 27.94 cm long
215.9mm wide and 279.4 mm long
18. 1L= 1000ml or 1.05669 quarts
3000ml = 3L or 3.17 quarts
19. 1 kg = 2.20462 pounds
150 Kg of cocain = 330.693 lb.
20. 1 km = 0.621371 miles
250 Km = 155.343 miles.
21. 1mm = 1000 um = 109 nm = 1010 A
7um RBC= 0.007 mm = 7000 nm = 70000 A
23. Temperature in Yokohama = 18 C= 64.4 F
Waikiki = 27.78 C = 82 F
Paris = 24.4 C = 76 F
Guam = 31 C = 87.8 F
Amsterdam = 10 C = 50 F
Anchorage = - 30.56 C = -23 F
Average temperature is 13.436 C or 56.1848 F
