if 2m=200cm3m=300cm,then prove that 5m=500cm using an euclid's axiom.
Answer :
Given
2m = 200 cm -------------- ( 1 )
And
3m = 300 cm -------------- ( 2 )
Now we apply Second axiom of Euclid , that states that " If equals be added to equals, then the wholes are equal. "
So we add equation 1 and 2 and get
2m + 3m = 200 cm + 300 cm
5m = 500 cm ( Hence proved )
