Question

16. Emily bought 48 yards of fabric to make curtains. How many inches of fabric did Emily buy?

Answer 1

Answer:

1,728

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

So,

1 yard = 3×12 = 36 inches

48 yards = 48×36 = 1,728 inches

Answer 2

Answer:

1728 inches

Explanation:

There are 3 feet in 1 yard and 12 inches in 1 foot, so we have:

48 yards * 3 = 144 feet

144 ft * 12 = 1728 inches

Emily bought 1728 inches.
