Question says to estimate how many 12-inch rulers will be about the same length as a bike. In other words we have to measure the length of bike by in terms of ruler like 3 ruler length or 5 rular length etc.
Type of bike is not mentioned so i'm going to use bicyle.
From internet I found that approx lenght of a bike ( bicycle) is = 68 inches.
Given that 1 ruler = 12 inches
So number of rulers that can fit into 68 inches can be found by dividing 68 by 12
68/12 = 5.7
So that means length of the bike is approx 5.7 rulers .
