Question

The ceiling in your building is 12 feet 6 inches high. The top of a table is 3 feet 9 inches from the floor. How far is the top of the table from the ceiling

Answer 1

12 feet 6 inches minus 3 feet 9 inches

12 x 12 = 144+6 = 150 inches

3 x 12 = 36 +9 =45 inches

150-45 = 105 inches

105/12 = 8.75 feet

.75*12 = 9

8 feet 9 inches
