Answer:

14 feet

Explanation:

Let F = number of feet the child traveled in total

Convert the yards to feet by applying the rule of three,

1 yard ---------------- 3 feet

2 yards -------------- X

X=(2 yards*3 feet)/(1 yard)=6feet

Hence,

2 yards = 6 feet

Now add the additional 8 feet you crawled

F = 6 feet + 8 feet

F = 14 feet

Therefore, the child traveled 14 feet in total.

Hope this helps!
