2.5 m\text{2.5 m}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps

let's solve this height problem.

  1. Identify the given heights and their units.

    The height of the container is 2.2 meters.
    The height of the box is 30 centimeters.

  2. Convert all measurements to the same unit.

    Since the options are in meters, convert the height of the box from centimeters to meters.
    There are 100 centimeters in 1 meter.

    30 cm=30100 m=0.3 m30 \text{ cm} = \frac{30}{100} \text{ m} = 0.3 \text{ m}

  3. Add the heights to find the total height.

    Total height = Height of container + Height of box

    Total height=2.2 m+0.3 m\text{Total height} = 2.2 \text{ m} + 0.3 \text{ m} Total height=2.5 m\text{Total height} = 2.5 \text{ m}

  4. Compare the result with the given options.

    The calculated total height is 2.5 m, which matches one of the options.

    The height of the two items is 2.5 m\text{2.5 m}.
    2.5 m\boxed{\text{2.5 m}}
