Answer 1

To find the length of the boards when put together, you will combine the common units and then convert any units.

10 inches + 9 inches = 19 inches
2 feet + 1 foot = 3 feet
1 yard

19 inches = 1 foot, 7 inches

3 feet = 1 yard

1 yard + 1 yard = 2 yards

The combined length is 2 yards, 1 foot, and 7 inches.
