Question

Convert 2 1/3 ft. to in.

Answer 1

Answer:

28 in

Explanation:

First, we need to convert the mixed number 2 1/3 ft to fraction, so we can use the following equation:

$A\frac{b}{c}=\frac{(A\times c)+b}{c}$

Then, 2 1/3 is equivalent to:

$2\frac{1}{3}=\frac{(2\times3)+1}{3}=\frac{6+1}{3}=\frac{7}{3}$

Now, taking into account that 1 ft is equivalent to 12 in, we can convert 7/3 ft to in as:

$\frac{7}{3}\text{ ft }\times\frac{12\text{ in}}{1\text{ ft}}=\frac{7\times12}{3}=\frac{84}{3}=28\text{ in}$

Therefore, the answer is 28 in.
