Ok.

Let's get to some kitchen work!!
.
Kitchen designing also takes math skillz.
.
So, let's place the numbers we have been given in order!!
.
Let's see...
.
0.8 meters comes as the shortest.
0.81 meters comes as second shortest. 
1.08 meters -
.
WAIT!!
.
DON'T GO ON!!
.
Centimeters. 180 and 18 centimeters. CENTIMETERS!!
.
Gotta make this clear.
.
How many centimeters goes into one meter?
.
Yup. 100.
.
18/100...
.
0/18 meters.
.
180/100...
.
1.8 meters.
.
Let's get to work again!!
.
18 centimeters comes shortest.
0.8 meters comes 2nd shortest.
0.81 meters comes 3rd shortest.
1.08 meters comes 2nd longest.
180 centimeters comes longest.
.
We have everything in place and ready to go!!
.
What's 180 - 18?
.
162.
.
So, the longest minus shortest length pipes have a difference of 162 centimers.

Hope I helped!!

calculista

we know that

\(1\) meter is equal to \(100\) centimeters

Step \(1\)

convert all measurements to centimeters

case 1) \(0.81\ m\)

\(0.81\ m = 0.81*100= 81\ cm\)

case 2) \(1.08\ m\)

\(1.08\ m = 1.08*100= 108\ cm\)

case 3) \(0.8\ m\)

\(0.8\ m = 0.8*100= 80\ cm\)

case 4) \(180\ cm\)

case 5) \(18\ cm\)

Step \(2\)

Compare the values

we have

\([81,108,80,180,18]\)

the shortest length is \(18\)

the longest length is \(180\)

Step \(3\)

Subtract the shortest length from the longest

\(180\ cm-18\ cm=162\ cm\)

therefore

the answer is

\(162\ cm\)
