Answer:
12 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
First lets separate both wires.
Tia's wire is 408 centimeters long. This is because 1 meter = 100 centimeters. This meter will be cut into 10 equal pieces. To do that, simply divide 408 by 10.
408 / 10 = 48 centimeter long pieces
Marta's wire is 540 centimeters long. This meter will be cut into 9 equal pieces. Like before, we will divide 540 by 9.
540 / 9 = 60 centimeter long pieces
To conclude, one of Marta's wires are 12 centimeters longer than Tia's.
