We are asked to convert 155.5 centimeters into meters. To do that we will use the following conversion factor:
[tex]100\operatorname{cm}=1m[/tex]Now we multiply the measurement we want to convert by the conversion factor. To do that we will use the conversion factor as a fraction where the unit we want to convert to is on the numerator:
[tex]155.5\operatorname{cm}\times\frac{1m}{100\operatorname{cm}}[/tex]Solving the product we get:
[tex]155.5\operatorname{cm}\times\frac{1m}{100\operatorname{cm}}=1.555m[/tex]Therefore, 155.5 centimeters is equivalent to 1.555 meters.
