Hint:
We are given a table with columns denoting different units of length. There are four rows, with some value in certain column. We are just asked the question related to first row. We have to write the quantity given in first row in meters. We don't need to worry about other rows.
The correct answer is: 8000
The quantity given in first row is 80 hectometer.
We are asked the above quantity in meters.
To convert the above quantity in meters, we should know the relation between them.
1 hectometer = 100 meters
So, to convert 80 hectometers into meters we will multiply the value by 100.
We get
80 hectometers = 80 × 100 meters
= 8000 meters
So, the value given in first row in meters is 8000.
For such questions, we should know the conversion of units.
