Answer:

16.5

Explanation:

Break it down into 2x6 + 9x6

6x2= 12ft.

9x6= 54 inches. divide 54 by 12 to get 4.5ft.

now add 12ft +4.5ft to get 16.5ft.

Answer:

16 ft 6 in

Explanation:

1 ft is 12 in

2 ft is 24 in

24 in plus 9 inches is 33

33 times 6 is 198

198 divided by 12 is 16.5

16 ft 6 in
