Hello! 

You could measure an egg's mass (g) or its liquid volume (mL).
There are 100 cm in a meter.  
If it's 35 degrees Celsius, it's about 95 degrees Fahrenheit - 
   I'd say that's definitely summer weather.
A year has 52 weeks (plus a few days left over).  
If you're asking for 35 hundreths in decimal, it looks like 
   this: 0.35

Hope this helps.
