Answer:

The sum of the measurement is 14 feet 5 inches.

Hence, you will get the change of $8.45

The required sum is 46 minutes 5 seconds.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Add 3 feet 6 inches+8 feet 2 inches+4 inches+2 feet 5 inches.

In order to add the measurement add inches with inches and feet with feet as shown.

3 feet + 8 feet + 2 feet and 6 inches + 2 inches + 4 inches + 5 inches.

13 feet 17 inches

As we know 1 feet = 12 inches

Thus 17 inches can be written as: 1 feet 5 inches

Hence, 13 feet 17 inches = 14 feet 5 inches

The sum of the measurement is 14 feet 5 inches.

Part (B) In a grocery store, steak costs $3.85 per pound. If you buy a three-pound steak and pay for it with a $20 bill, how much change will you get?

Steak costs $3.85 per pound and you buy a three pound steak.

So, the cost will be:

$3.85×3=$11.55

You pay $20 so the change you will get is:

$20-$11.55=$8.45

Hence, you will get the change of $8.45

Part (C) Add 8 minutes 32 seconds+37 minutes 18 seconds+15 seconds.

In order to add the time add minutes with minutes and seconds with seconds as shown.

8 minutes+37 minutes and 32 seconds+ 18 seconds+15 seconds.

45 minutes 65 seconds

As we know 1 minute = 60 seconds

Thus 65 seconds can be written as: 1 minute 5 seconds

Hence, 45 minutes 65 seconds = 46 minutes 5 seconds

The required sum is 46 minutes 5 seconds.
