Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Identify the standard conversion factor for inches to centimeters.

    The exact definition is:

    1 inch=2.54 cm1\,\text{inch} = 2.54\,\text{cm}
  2. Verify using millimeter definition (optional confirmation).

    1 inch =25.4= 25.4 mm exactly.
    Since 1 cm =10= 10 mm,

    1 inch=25.4 mm×1 cm10 mm=2.54 cm1\,\text{inch} = 25.4\,\text{mm} \times \frac{1\,\text{cm}}{10\,\text{mm}} = 2.54\,\text{cm}
  3. Compare with given options (all in cm).

    (a) 2.34 cm ≠2.54\neq 2.54 cm

    (b) 2.44 cm ≠2.54\neq 2.54 cm

    (c) 2.54 cm == 2.54 cm (matches)

    (d) None of these (incorrect, since (c) matches)
