Question

a baby humpback whale is about 1 yard long. at 12 years old it will be about 15 yards long. in inches what is the diffrence between the humpbacks length as a baby and its length as an adult

Answer 1

Explanation:

The baby humpback whale is about 1 yard long. We need to convert the length of the baby humpback whale to inches. 36 inches = 1 yard

Therefore, the length of the baby humpback whale is 36 inches.

At 12 years old it will be about 15 yards long. Converting 15 yards to inches, it becomes 15 × 36 = 540 inches.

The difference between the humpbacks length as a baby and its length as an adult would be

540 - 36 = 504 inches

Answer 2

Good evening ,

Answer:

504 inches

Explanation:

Recall: 1 Yard is equal to 36 inches.

then ,the diffrence between the humpbacks length as a baby and its length as an adult (in inches) equals to (15-1)×36 = 504.
