Answer:

2.6 inches (third option)

Explanation:

Given:

To convert 6.5cm to another unit

To find:

The value of 6.5 cm inches

To determine the value in inches, we need to do a conversion from cm to inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

let 6.5 cm in inches = y

6.5cm = y

2.54cm = 1 inch

crossmultiply:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 6.5(1)\text{ = y\lparen2.54\rparen} \\ 6.5\text{ = 2.54y} \\ divide\text{ both sides by 2.54y:} \\ \frac{6.5}{2.54}\text{ = y} \\ y\text{ = 2.559} \end{gathered}[/tex]

To the nearest tenth, y = 2.6

Hence, the value of 6.5cm in inches is 2.6 inches (third option)
