Answer:

The length of the insect in decimeters is 0.035.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion of unit questions can be solved by rule of three.

Each millimeter has 0.01 decimeter. How many decimeters are there in 3.5 millimeters? So:

1 ml - 0.01dm

3.5ml - x dm

[tex]x = 3.5*0.01[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.035[/tex]

The length of the insect in decimeters is 0.035.
