Jair Sweeney · Answer 1

He is incorrect.

We are changing 1 foot to 100 feet which is a factor of 100.

So, going from. 3 meters, we must also increase this by a factor of 100.

.3 meters times 100 equals 30 meters and NOT 3 meters.

No, the answer is wrong. It should be

100 feet = 30 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

1 foot = 0.3 meter

100 feet = 0.3 * 100 = 30.0 = 30 meters
