Question
Michael’s dog is 30 inches tall. Find the height of his dog in feet and inches.
- 3 feet 2 inches
- 3 feet
- 2 feet
- 2 feet 6 inches
Hint:
1 inch=
foot
The correct answer is: 2 feet 6 inches
1 foot = 12 inches
Or 12 inches = 1 foot
1 inch =
foot
So, 30 inches =
feet
= 2 feet 6 inches, where 2 is the numerator and 6 is the remainder which we get when we divide 30 by 12.
So the height of Michael's dog is 2 feet 6 inches.
Remember the conversion formula from inch to foot.
