Start by setting up two fractions which are equal to one another. We will use x as the unknown amount, which is the number of centimeters in 12 feet here.(see attached picture for a visual)
Now we can cross multiply, which gives us 12*60.96=2*x
Now, solving for x we divide 12*60.96=731.52 by 2, which gives us x=365.76 centimeters in 12 feet.
