The values are given: 5m, 50cm, 8dm. find the smallest value and increase it by 2cm. what is the value?

To begin with, let’s translate all the values that are presented in the condition of this task into a common unit of measurement, namely, in centimeters:
5 m = 100 * 5 = 500 cm;
8 dm = 10 * 8 = 80 cm.
Let’s compare the first and second values from the setting condition:
500> 50.
Let’s compare the smaller and third values from the setting condition:
50 <80.
The smaller value is 50 centimeters.
Let’s find out how many centimeters this length will equal if we add 2 cm to it:
50 + 2 = 52.
Answer: After that, you get 52 cm.
