Answer 1

Given:

Susie's dog is 2 feet tall. When she measures her dog in inches he was 24 inches.

To find:

Why is there an increase in inches.

Solution:

It is given that Susie's dog is 2 feet tall.

We know that,

1 feet = 12 inches

Using this conversion, we get

2 feet = 2×12 inches

2 feet = 24 inches

So, the measures 2 feet and 24 inches are equal.

Therefore, if Susie's dog is 2 feet tall then he is 24 inches tall because both of these measure are equal.
