Since we are given how many centimeters are in one inch, let's convert 54 feet into inches first.

There are 12 inches in a foot, so multiply 54 feet by 12 to find how many inches there are.

54 * 12 = 648 inches

We are given that there are 2.54 cm in an inch, so multiply 648 inches by 2.54 centimeters to find how many cm there are.

648 * 2.54 = 1645.92

Your answer is D) 1645.92 cm.

Answer:

D. 1645.92 centimeters.

Explanation:

We are asked to find the number of centimeters in 54 feet.

We know that 1 feet equals 12 inches.

First of all, we will convert 54 feet to inches by multiplying 54 by 12 as:


\text{54 feet}=54* 12\text{ inches}


\text{54 feet}=648\text{ inches}

We also know that 1 inch equals approximately 2.54 centimeters.

To convert 648 inches to centimeters, we will multiply 648 by 2.54 as:


648\text{ inches}=648* 2.54\text{ cm}


648\text{ inches}=1645.92\text{ cm}

Therefore, 54 feet equals approximately 1645.92 centimeters.
