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

Step-by-step 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:

$9 in \frac{1 ft}{12 in}=0.75 ft$

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.
