How many inches are in one meter?

1 inch
39 inches
1000 inches
62 inches

The correct answer is: 39 inches

One meter is equivalent to approximately 39.37 inches. In most contexts, this value is rounded to 39 inches when a continuous conversion is required, such as in casual use or practical measurements. This conversion factor arises from the definition of the meter, which is a standard unit of length in the metric system. The reasons the other choices do not represent the correct conversion are because: - 1 inch is a much smaller measurement and does not correlate with the length of a meter. - 1000 inches vastly exceeds the length of one meter, as it would convert to over 83 feet. - 62 inches, while closer than some other options, still does not accurately represent the conversion from meters to inches. Thus, the correct answer of 39 inches is the most accurate and practical conversion from one meter.
