#700" centimetres" = 7" metres"#

We require to know the following fact.

#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(1" metre" =100" centimetres"" or " 1m=100cm)color(white)(2/2)|)))#

#100" cm"to1"m"#

#rArr(7xx100)"cm"to(7xx1)"m"#

Hence 700 cm = 7m

Alternatively : #(700"cm")/(100"cm")=7"m"#
