Answer 2

Answer:

27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$2\frac{1}{4} ft$
1 foot = 12 inches

To find the answer we convert the mixed number into a decimal and then multiply by 12. (Since, 1 foot is 12 inches)

$12\times2=24$
$1/4=1\div4=0.25$
$2+0.25=2.25$
$2.25\times12=27$
$=27in$

Hope this helps.
