We know that 1 inches is 1.54 cm ; and you have 44mm so to make it easy to convert we will convert to from mm to cm and we will get 4.4 cm then we will do this : 1 inche ---------------- 1.54 cm
X inche ---------------- 4.4 cm
and by doing this operation : X=(4.4 * 1)/1.54 we get how much inches we have in 44 mm which is : 1.73 inches
In this problem, you have to convert the unit of a measurement from millimeters to inches.
There are 25.4 millimeters in one inch. Therefore 44 millimeters will constitute 44/25.4 inches (by the method of cross multiplication).
That is, there are 1.732 inches in 44 millimeters.
Divide mm by 25.4 to convert to inches
So 44 / 25.4 = 1.73 or nearly 1 3/4 inches
