Question

Because all of the ending values are given in feet, find the window dimensions in feet. Convert the length of 3 feet, 9 inches strictly into feet. The answer should be in decimal format.

Answer 1

Answer: 3.75 ft

Explanation:

Here we are given the measure of the length of a window. Generally the length is given in the International System of units format (meters); however, in this case we are given the length in feet and inches:

`3 ft+9 in`

Now, before converting this whole measure to feet, we have to know that
`1 ft=12 in`, then we can perform the conversion:

`9 in (1 ft)/(12 in)=0.75 ft`

This means
`9 in=0.75 ft`

Hence:

`3 ft+9 i=3 ft+0.75 ft=3.75 ft` This is the measure of the length of the window in feet.
