    I don't use the metric system, but I'm pretty sure that makes no sense

    That makes no sense. Are you rounding? Because if you are you're left with the girl being 2 cm tall. Are you sure you didn't mean 1.623 m? In that case it would be 163.2 cm or 162 cm.

    1.62 cm is gonna be correct unless you allow for time to pass and then there is a chance that she would grow to 1.63 cm.

    Its 2 cm.  You just round, 5 or more you go up, 4 or less you go down.  Like 1.432cm would be 1cm, or 6.798cm would be 7cm.  But I don't know of anyone being 1.623cm tall.  That is less than an inch, they may have meant meter, which is like a yard, 3ft.  Regardless, the rounding is the same.

    i think, it is not 1.623cm it is 1.623 m. That's a common height. 5.35 feet. The answer should be...
    1.623x100=162.3 cm=162cm(approx)
