In which of the following, lengths have been arranged in decreasing order ?

  • A.8500 mm, 800 cm 8 mm, 80 dm 8 cm, 8 m
  • B.80 dm 8 cm, 8500 mm, 8 m, 800 cm 8 mm
  • C.8 m, 80 dm 8 cm, 8500 mm, 800 cm 8 mm
  • D.8500 mm, 80 dm 8 cm, 800 cm 8 mm, 8 m

Answer: D

The decreasing order is 8500 mm, 80 dm 8 cm, 800 cm 8 mm, 8 m.

Convert all four lengths to centimetres:

  • 8500 mm = 850 cm
  • 80 dm 8 cm = 800 cm + 8 cm = 808 cm
  • 800 cm 8 mm = 800.8 cm
  • 8 m = 800 cm

From largest to smallest: 850, 808, 800.8, 800, which is the fourth option. The first option puts 800 cm 8 mm before 80 dm 8 cm, and the others start with a smaller length.
