1 metre = 100 cm
so the first one is 240/100 = 12/5
one year = 52 wks
so 1 weeks is 1/52
one cm = 10mm
so the fractions is 4/40 = 1/10

1 metre = 100 cm
240/100 = 24/10 = 12/5
240cm is 12/5 of a metre
1 year = 365 days
No. of weeks = 365/7
= 52(approx)
1 week is 1/52 of a year
1 cm = 10mm
4cm = 40mm
4/40 = 1/10
4 mm is 1/10 if 4cm

1) a metere is 100cm so:
240/100 = 12/5=2+2/5
2) 365/7 'cos there's 365 days in a year and 7 days in a week
3)4/40=1/10. 'cos 4cm is 40 mm

A meter is 100 centimeters. So 240 centimeters are 240/100 of a meter, or 24/10 of a meter, or 2 and 2/5 meters.
A year is 365 days (usually) and a week is 7 days. So, a week is 7/365 of a year.
A centimeter is 10 millimeters. So 4 millimeters are 4/40 of 4 centimeters, or 1/10.
I hope that helps.

1)one metre=100cm.. so Xmetre=240, so 100/240= 5/12
2) 1yr = 52 weeks, so 1/52
3)1cm=10mm, so 4cm=40mm, so 4mm/40mm=1/10
