Given :
Jen has 2 meters of taffy
She wants to give each of her 3 best friends an equal amount of taffy.
To Find: How many centimeters of taffy will each friend get?

centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jen has 2 meters of taffy.
She wants to give each of her 3 best friends an equal amount of taffy.

Each friend will get centimeters of taffy.
first you'll need to convert the meters to centimeters. 2 meters = 200 centimeters. then you divide 200 by 3 which is 6 2/3 centimeters for each person.
