Answer : The number in inches are, 30 inches

Explanation :

As we are given that there 12 inches are present in 1 foot. Now we have to determine the number in inches by unitary method.

The conversion factor used is :

1 foot = 12 inches

As, 1 foot is equal to 12 inches

So, 2.5 feet is equal to
\frac{2.5\text{ feet}}{1\text{ feet}}* 12\text{ inches}=30\text{ inches}

Therefore, the number in inches are, 30 inches
