Answer:

45.93 ft.

Explanation:

1. Find a conversion rate.

From general knowledge about the measuring units, we know the following:

1 meter = 3.281 ft

2. Convert using a conversion factor.

A conversion factor is just multiplying by a fraction that has the unit you are converting from in the denominator, and its equivalent of the unit you are converting to as a numerator. This is the procedure:


14m*(3.281ft)/(1m)

See that we place the meter units as a denominator, so that it cancels the meters in the original expression (14m) and we're left with only feet. Hence, answer should be the following:


14*3.281ft=\\ \\45.934ft

3. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Remember that the hundredths are numbers that occupy the second spot after the dot. For example, here's the number one (1) placed in the hundredths spot: 0.01. This is 1 hundrenth. Not, let's round 45.934 to the nearest hundredth.

45.934 -----> The number next to the 3 isn't 5 or greater. Therefore, 3 remains as it is.

45.93.
